Who is this guy ? A deck cadet at 17 followed by 18 years at sea on all type of ships from tugs to container ships, banana boats to cruise liners mainly with Cunard Line. Then a move ashore into management with Cunard Line: Itinerary planner Port Operations Manager Director of Shipbuilding Director of Port Development Director of Compliance Vice President of Marine & Technical Operations (DPA & CSO) Then a move to Royal Caribbean New Build Project Manager Director of Maritime Safety & Compliance
What is Risk ? • Risk is the product of the probability that something untoward will happen and the grade of severity of the outcome • Risk = Frequency x Consequence
“Risk” to the Cruise Industry • At Royal Caribbean Cruises Limited we decided to track the leading indicators of five major marine casualty types: • Grounding • Collision / Allision • Fire & Explosion • Weather related events • Equipment & System Failure
This is where we believe we are Grounding Collision / Allision Fire & Explosion (Weather Related Events) Equipment & System Failures
Barriers & Mitigations ? • We track Metrics. • We produce Procedural Barriers to guard against accidents. • We produce Sub Procedures and SOPs to further strengthen these barriers. In the event of something happening in spite of these barriers: • We plan for Mitigation to reduce severity of consequence
Bow Ties • Take for example the case of an Engine Room Fire: • We would first consider all of the things that could cause a fire in the engine room: • Fuel Leak • Crankcase explosion • Turbo-charger explosion • Spontaneous combustion • Boiler fire / explosion • Electrical / Short circuit equipment failure • Incinerator fire • Hot Work • etc. etc. etc.
What next after the Bow Tie ? • Provide structured procedures / check lists and guidance for every one of those white boxes (SMS). • Check they are being followed through Internal, External, 2nd and 3rd party audits. And Self-Audits. • Create a No-Blame or ‘Just’ Culture. • Refine and improve metrics to ensure as many leading indicators are collected. • Periodically Review entire structure on a critical, self-examination. • Learn from your mistakes.
