Maritime Transport and Risks of Packaged Dangerous Goods

This report deals with the maritime transport system of packaged dangerous goods (PDG) and principles of risks of marine accidents/incidents involving dangerous goods. The report has been part of the Safe and Reliable Transport Chains of Dangerous Goods in the Baltic Sea Region (DaGoB) project and the author’s own research. The main aims of the DaGoB project included: a) improve co-operations at various levels among parties concerned in transport of dangerous goods in the BSR; b) provide up-to-date information on cargo flows, supply chain efficiency and risks related to transport of dangerous goods; and c) disseminate and transfer the knowledge gained from the project on local, national, regional and international levels. In this report attempts have been made to enhance our understanding of the field. The essential constituent elements of the maritime transport system and risks have been defined and exhaustively described. (Less)
