Innovation management in oil tanker vessels safety

Abstract

Oil pollution is caused by the maritime casualty that effecting safety of environment. While lot of research, work and investigation carried out in order to find out the cause of oil spillage attributed during accident in shipping industry, very rare research has been done to determine the aspect of safety in relation with effectiveness of innovation in structure for oil tanker vessel for controlling oil pollution. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) believes that innovation in technology is paralleled with the International Management and Safety Convention somehow reducing the oil spillage. Hence, in this research great emphasis will be made on its effect globally in relation to aspect of management and innovation technology in oil tanker vessel safety, ways to improve safety management, reduce casualty and marine pollution, and review some potential innovations and ideas to achieve the optimal maritime safety for oil tanker vessels.
