Dynamic of the maritime accidents of the main types of ships from EU and their implications. A literature review
Keywords:
maritime accidents, cargo ships, damage/loss of equipment, collisions, passenger ships, fishing ships.
Abstract
Maritime accidents and incidents are a major concern for the shipping industry, even though unified standards exist and solutions have been identified to improve maritime navigation and minimize accidents. This study aimed to carry out a statistical analysis of maritime accidents and incidents in the period 2014-2022, of ships belonging to the EU Member States, highlighting the main shipping areas where maritime accidents occurred, the result ing consequences, the types of pollution, and the main factors leading to maritime accidents and incidents. The results showed that there were 23,814 accidents/incidents, of which 2.6% were very serious accidents, 28.5% were serious accidents, 53.9% were less serious accidents and 15% were maritime incidents.
