  • Recent statistics are reviewed with regard to deficiencies in standards of seaworthiness often resulting in detention as noted from surveys worldwide. Recent ship loss statistics are analysed, the subject of ownership of Flag of Convenience (FOC) vessels is addressed and FOC registry related to vessel loss data. The increasing age of the world fleets is noted as replacement orders for new hulls have dwindled. Crew costs are discussed and considered in relation to economics and safety of operation. Comparison is made on ship safety between routed and non-routed vessels. Improvements in weather routeing services and safety are noted as a result of employing automated systems.
