  Risk Management in Maritime Transportation Networks

  Christian Nedeß, Axel Friedewald, Lars Wagner, Lutz Neumann

  …239 Risk Management in Maritime Transportation Networks Christian Nedeß, Axel Friedewald, Lars Wagner, and Lutz Neumann Abstract This paper… …introduces a new methodology for integrating risk management proce- dures into planning and design of maritime transportation networks. The method- ology… …consists of several steps. At first an operational risk model for generic struc- turing different risks in maritime transportation networks is developed. The… …model establishes parameters for risk evaluation purposes. Then the underlying maritime transportation processes that constitute the network are… …modelled for simulation. This leads to a system description on an operational level which allows the applica- tion of the operational risk model to a… …that have an influence on the overall risk situation of the trans- portation network can be determined and the simulation studies can be conducted for… …further analysis. The next step defines a procedure for evaluating risks, integrat- ing aspects of risk quantification and risk aggregation. The final step… …of the meth- odology deals with strategies for risk mitigation. The simulation system serves as a starting point for defining and testing mitigation… …measures. The objective is to re- duce risks within the maritime network structure, considering the constraints that costs for risk assessment as well as… …mitigation measures must not exceed the benefit of the expected risk reduction effects. Finally, an application case is presented in which the risk…
