INTRODUCT
ION
 INTRODUCTION
Maritime disasters have occurred throughout

history, claiming huge numbers of lives and causing

immeasurable damage to the world's shipping

industry.

From shipwrecks to collisions, fires, and explosions,

these tragedies can have far-reaching effects on

society, including leading to improved maritime

safety regulations and procedures.

COLLISION

Definiti
Causes
Ships collision is a phenomenon that occurs when
two vessels come into contact with each other. It
n

can results in significant damage to the ships and

their cargo, as well as the loss of life and property.
It is a major concern for seafarers and maritime
authorities, as it can be difficult to predict and
prevent.

Causes
Collisions between vessels can be caused by a variety of
factors, such as human error, mechanical malfunctions,
poor visibility, high speeds, and inadequate

Objectif
 COLREG (Collision Regulation), 1972 : Stands for Convention on the

Fiche
International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea. It is a set

n
of international maritime rules designed to prevent collisions
between ships, and to promote the safety of life.
 The COLREGs are a set of rules that govern the behavior of all vessels
in the open sea.
 They provide guidance on how vessels should maneuver in order to
avoid collisions, and how they should interact with other vessels in
order to ensure the safety of everyone involved.

FLOODING
Example

Definiti
Causes

Flooding is the uncontrolled entry of seawater into a

tank or compartment as a result of damage.

A flooding is the result of water ingress onboard and can

affect the watertight integrity and finally the stability of

the vessel. Its impact may be catastrophic when water

enters spaces which are designated as dry areas, such as

cargo holds and engine room.

Example

Definiti
Causes
Ship flooding can be caused from:

 Damage in vessel’s hull due to collision with other

vessel, contact or grounding

 Heavy weather such as typhoons and hurricanes

 Leakages at the ballast tanks

 Leakages at the engine room from equipment related

with sea water

Fiche
Titanic was a British passenger liner that sank in the North Atlantic
Ocean in the early morning of 15 April 1912, after colliding with an
iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton to New York
City. Of the estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, more than
1,500 died.

on “Accidental/Voluntary”
Example

Definiti
Causes
Grounding is the “Accidental stopping of a vessel by
contact with the bottom".

When a ship is accidentally immobilized on a shoal, that

is to say in a place where the ship no longer has enough
water under the keel to navigate, it is a grounding.

The Court of Appeal of Rouen, in a judgment of April 26, 1974 "Abeille 14"
and ship "Salat" gives a definition of grounding: is the situation of a ship
whose keel is accidentally engaged on a rocky or sandy bottom and can no
longer move on its own.
Example

Definiti
Causes
 A navigation error (error on the position, damage to the
navigation....);
 Bad weather conditions, strong storm;
 Damage to the propulsion or the steering gear or prime
mover, or even a problem occurring while the ship is at
anchor (not held or loss);
 Lack of preparation for the voyage, incorrect nautical
information or its absence update or by poor
management of bridge resources;

significant risk to the safety of the person who falls
overboard, as well as to other crew members who may be

PIRACY
 Definiti
Sea pirates are people whose sole purpose is to rob and
steal any ship that passes through their territory.
Pirates at sea were a hindrance to sailors and merchants
all the time. Parallel to the existence of maritime
transport and maritime trade, piracy exists. Marine
piracy has spread deep in the waters of Europe,
Southeast Asia, East Asia, South Asia, the Persian Gulf,
Madagascar, the Canary Islands, North America, and the
Caribbean Sea.
