Subsystem Risk and Reliability Analysis for Colission Aversion: A Case of Propulsion Failure Contribution Factor

This paper describes how water supports the entire planet and its vast resources need to be fully utilized to benefit human activities in a sustainable manner. Inland water transportation represents the cleanest mode of transportation and this benefit indicates the potential rise for coastal transportation, the choice towards the mitigation of climate change, meeting logistics for short sea and supply vessel operation for growing large vessels, expanding deep-sea operation and floating production units. Coastal water transportation operations attract the high probability and the consequence of accidents that make reliability requirements for the design and operability for safety and environmental protection necessary. This paper discusses design and operability in coastal water and mitigation options that can be provided to prevent coalition through the analysis of propulsion failure subsystems. The paper presents the results of propulsion failure subsystem scenario analysis for the Malaysia River Langat.
