Research on risk control of ship cargo transportation safety

Abstract

Maritime transportation of goods is the main way of international trade today, accounting for more than two thirds of the total trade. However, ship cargo transportation has the characteristics of huge transportation network, complex and diverse types of goods and many uncertain factors, and there are potential safety hazards. Once an accident occurs, it may cause serious safety accidents and cargo damage. Therefore, it is of objective and practical significance to reveal the safety risks of ship cargo transportation from a macro perspective. This paper analyzes the factors affecting the safety of ship cargo transportation from the aspects of people, goods and environment. In the aspect of human factors, this paper discusses the related role of people in the process of cargo transportation and the potential factors affecting the safety of cargo transportation. In terms of cargo factors, the nature classification of goods and the influence of packaging methods on ship transportation are introduced in detail. In terms of environmental factors, the influence of maritime traffic environment and hydrometeorology on cargo transportation is analyzed. In this paper, the related issues of ship cargo transportation safety are deeply studied, and targeted measures are put forward in order to reduce or eliminate potential risks, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling ship cargo transportation risks.
