Preface of MASTIC 2022 Proceedings

Abstract

Welcome to 3rd Maritime Safety International Conference (MASTIC) 2022. After successfully held first and second MASTIC, Department of Marine Engineering, Faculty of Marine Technology, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS), Surabaya collaborated with The Center of Excellence for Maritime Safety and Marine Installation (PUI KEKAL) proudly presents the 3rd MASTIC 2022. Since we are still facing the global COVID-19 pandemic, the committee decided to hold this conference virtually on July 16, 2022, while the organizer was in Surabaya, Indonesia. This virtual conference theme is "Future Challenges for the improvement of Maritime Safety Systems, Marine Operation and Environment".There are three prominent keynotes speakers. First speaker is Ir. Hengki Angkasawan who will deliver keynotes about the concept of E-Navigation and E-pilotage. Second is Prof. Takeshi Nakazawa, who delivers keynotes about New initiative in Improving Human Resources for Safer Maritime Transport and Operations. The last speaker is Mr. Denzal John Hargreaves, with the topic the role of Classification Societies to achieve a balance between Safety and Technological Advances. The committee of MASTIC received 77 full paper submissions. From those submissions, there were 60 accepted papers after some rigor review process and were presented in MASTIC 2022 which consists of three parallel sessions with four rooms. The paper represents 6 different countries (Indonesia, Japan, Germany, South Korea, United Arab Emirates dan Timor Leste). Hence, on behalf of MASTIC committee, I would like to extend gratitude to all the authors who contribute to the submission of the result of their latest research. Also, I would like to express my deep appreciation to the Technical Program Committee and the reviewers for their support in the reviewing process to keep the quality of manuscripts. The virtual MASTIC 2022 was conducted via the Zoom platform and was attended by more than 220 participants, including presenters, authors, and co-authors.List of Conference Committee is available in this pdf.
