I will pay for the following essay : RISK ASSESSMENTS OF SHIP COLLISIONS IN HIGH-TRAFFIC MARINE TERRITORY. The essay is to be 1 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

In this paper, the encounter types were introduced as an additional major risk that leads to ship collisions. By implementing BN in risk assessments, one could identify a set of major critical components that have a strong influence in the probability of occurrence of ship collisions. Thus, special attentions could be directed towards these critical components in order to improve the overall reliability of marine transportations system, to minimize the potential threats, and to prevent ship collisions from happening.

The marine traffic has been growing exponentially during the last few years due to the enhancement of marine transportations technologies. Shipping by sea delivers around 90% of all world trade [1]. It is highly complex and it has a significant contribution to the world economic progress, because shipping by sea is a lot cheaper than shipping by air for any non-time sensitive materials.

In high-traffic marine territories, such as Gulf of Finland (GoF) and Baltic Sea, the ship to ship collision is about 20% of the yearly reported marine accidents cases [2]. Other than ship to ship collisions, a ship can collide with bridges, quay, costal reefs, icebergs and random floating objects. The well-known devastating accident of RMS Titanic colliding with icebergs in 1912 had resulted in 1514 loss of life. Although enhancement in technologies offers convenience and safety improvements, ship collisions are still happening. Exactly 100 years later after RMS Titanic incident in 2012, Costa Concordia, an Italian cruise ship, capsized and sank after striking an underwater obstruction and lost 32 lives. Other than loss of life, fuel leakage is also associated with ship collisions. Ship collisions involved a tanker that carries oil, gas or any hazardous chemical materials could lead to severe ecological disasters and a huge financial loss. A number of efforts have been conducted to increase the safety of marine
