Public expectation Общественные ожидания
• Zero accidents
• Ноль аварий
• Zero pollution
• Ноль загрязнений
How is this achieved ?
Как этого достичь?
• Commitment to continuous improvement
• Общее стремление к постоянному улучшению
How is this achieved ?Как этого достичь?
Good ships / Хорошие суда
Good people / Хорошие люди
“Good” regulation / «Хорошие» правила
and elimination of the substandard
и устранение отклонений от стандартов
Good ships Хорошие суда
• Robust new ships – common rules/Надежные новые суда – общие правила
• Sound maintenance – industry guidelinesПравильное обслуживание – отраслевые рекомендации
• Strong class – doing betterСильный класс – делающие лучше
• Responsible charterers – more to doОтветственные фрахтовщики – делать больше
• Responsible insurers – P&I coming onboardОтветственные страховщики – страхование ответственности перед третьими лицами
• Competent flags – pressure buildingКомпетентные флаги – усиление давления
Assisted by uniform and effective Port State ControlС помощью единого эффективного контроля со стороны
государства порта
Good people Хорошие люди
• Improved training – STCW revised ?Более качественная подготовка – пересмотр STCW?
• Better guides – industry roleЛучшие руководства – роль отрасли
• Greater transparency – no blame cultureБольшая прозрачность – отказ от культуры обвинения
“Good” regulation«Хорошие» правила
• Fit for purpose Соответствующие назначению
• Properly consideredТщательно продуманные
• Impact assessedС оценкой возможных последствий
• Consistent with international lawСогласующиеся с международным з аконодательством
• Uniformly (and fairly) implementedЕдинообразно (и честно) выполняемые
TODAY
TO IMPROVE SAFETY
Still important to have:
Good ships / Хорошие суда
Good people / Хорошие люди
“Good” regulation / «Хорошие» правила
But the emphasis is even greater on:
Good people / Хорошие люди
Tens Year AgoTO IMPROVE SAFETY
• INTERTANKO introduced the concept of the “Chain of Responsibility”
• A realisation that it was necessary to involve all parties if we wished to eliminate the substandard – we ALL have responsibilities
TODAYThat concept is widely recognised and
applied

The Challenge of “Continuous Improvement”
Doing better tomorrow than we do today !
Methodologies to assist, (some examples):• Incident analyses• Sharing of information
Learning lessons

INTERCARGO: Bulk Carrier performance
• Report covers port state control and other issues
• Factors analysed includes – age profile– Class, Flag and P&I (IACS
does better than average)– Negative performance
factors (Collisions and Groundings)
– Ports detaining vessels– Ownership quality – factored
into 10 categories based on Deficiencies per Inspection
INTERCARGO: Bulk Carrier Losses
• Bulk Carrier losses remain very small in proportion to the overall total of vessels
• But losses due to structural reasons have not yet been eliminated. 0

The Sharing of information- to improve safety
Frequently there are difficulties – commercial confidences and exposures, legal issues, professional integrities to protect, etc.
The Challenge is to overcome these !
Examples of successes:
• Company “NO-BLAME” cultures
• Confidential reporting – for example CHIRP (Confidential Hazardous Incident Reporting Programme)
• Near-Miss reporting – for example with pilotage in straits
• Inter-industry analyses – for example of fires and explosions on Chemical and Product Carrier
• IACS “Early Warning System” (EWS)
BUT More are needed !
CONCLUSIONS
To improve safety:
• Good ships BUT also GOOD PEOPLE
• Greater emphasis on partnerships and cooperation
• Commitment to “continuous improvement”
• Learn lessons (for example through incident and root cause analyses, and accident investigations)
• Share information (greater openness and transparency)
