| Abstract |
|
To commercialize remote control of maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS), offshore sea trials are required for verification. For this, navigation principles are necessary for safe and efficient offshore sea trials. Currently, navigation principles are the IMO’s rules for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs). To apply them to remote control for sea trials, various problems need to be solved first. The aim of this study was to identify navigation principles that should be given priority in sea trial verification among current domestic and international navigation regulations or guidelines to suggest ways in which these principles could be applied in the field. The research was conducted with a four-step procedure (analysis, derivation, discussion, and proposal): After analyzing Maritime Safety Tribunal's reports and domestic and international regulations and classification rules in connection with remote control features, navigation principles that should be considered first were derived and discussed and the method of application to offshore verification was proposed. Results showed that the priority of the maneuverability specified in Article 18 (Limitations of Responsibility Between Ships) of COLREGs should be reviewed first. It was found that it would be reasonable for remotely controlled MASS to give priority to avoiding. Moreover, remote control should also comply with COLREGs, ‘seafarer’s duty’ and ‘appropriate navigation cooperation actions’ according to various situations. This study is expected to contribute to safe and efficient offshore demonstration of remotely controlled MASS, which is currently being commercialized. |
