THE STUDY ON ACCIDENTS OF CARRYING CONTAINERS ON DECK AND THEIR LOSS PREVENTION / 貨櫃裝載於甲板事故及損害防阻之研究

碩士 / 國立高雄海洋科技大學 / 海事資訊科技研究所 / 100 / With the growing size of ocean container vessels in the past decade, modern container vessels can load more than ten thousand containers at a time. According to research, parametric rolling appears to be most severe in large container ships. Parametric rolling combining with poor lashing or other stowage problems, can result in containers overboard during rough sea. In 1998, M.V. APL China encountered severe weather while crossing the North Pacific. It is reported 300 containers were lost and another 700 containers were damaged in the single trip. More than US$ 100 million of cargoes were lost, and more than 20 million of compensation was paid to the owners of these lost cargoes and damaged cargoes. M.V. OOCL America was also reported loss 300 containers during a Pacific storm. M.V. MSC Napoli was reported to lose 103 containers overboard in a winter voyage.
The results of the research aim at major causes of containers overboard and point out the most effective ways for loss prevention. It found very high ratios that there were the defects of ship design, discomfortable to be maintained for equipment or the negligence of communication and management of the operators. It were containers overboard all related to human errors except for the defects of the lashing gears. It prevented for containers overboard as well as the improvement for deck lashings and minimization of the accident during delivery.
