WAYS OF SAFETY IMPROVEMENT OF LOADING OPERATIONS WITH HEAVY LIFT CARGO ON BOARD SPECIALIZED VESSELS
Keywords:
decision support system, heavy lift cargo, heavy lift vessels
Abstract
The article examines the issues of safety improvement of loading operations on board Heavy Lift vessels. Authors suggested the approaches to improve standard procedure of loading operations on such vessels by using decision support system. This system executes monitoring and management of a number of vessel characteristics: quantity of ballast and its distribution in ballast tanks, heeling angle, metacentric height, hook load, boom outreach, windspeed and rolling period. Application of the decision support system for monitoring of the mentioned characteristics and working out guidelines on loading and discharge operations on board Heavy Lift vessels can considerably improve the safety of heavy lift transportation by sea.
