Abstract
Safety assessment is an important part of maritime safety analysis and management as it can provide decision support to safety-based operations. In this chapter, we first review fire and explosion safety related regulations and assessment approaches, and then present a hierarchical assessment framework for evaluating safety against fire and explosion hazards in container line supply chain (CLSC).Main criteria and factors influencing fire and explosion safety on containerships are investigated, and a safety modeling and synthesis method using the Evidential Reasoning (ER) approach is briefly discussed. The outcomes generated by the proposed safety assessment method are highly consistent with “goal-setting” safety regulations.
