DEFINITION - AUTONOMOUS SHIPAllianz Risk Consulting
• “There is currently no international definition of what an autonomous ship is,
• what the various levels of autonomy are and
• whether an autonomous ship is a ship under international law”

IMO’S REGULATORY FRAMEWORK Allianz Risk Consulting
International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the Comité Maritime International (CMI) are already exploring how autonomous vessels would fit into the existing framework of international maritime law.
• In 2017 the use of “Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships” (MASS) was put on IMO’s agenda (MSC 98 – 101/ June 2017 – June 2019).
• IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee (MSC), agreed to work on a "Regulatory scoping exercise for the use of (MASS)", with a target completion year of 2020 (MSC 102 Final consideration).
• MSC has been looking into how safe, secure and environmentally sound MASS operations may be addressed and how IMO rules and regulations may need to be adapted.
• For the purpose of the regulatory exercise the term “Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship” (MASS) and degrees of autonomy were preliminarily defined.Photo: IMO Headquarters, Flickr.com.

Reducing the crew can significantly reduce the total operational costs of a vessel. Crew facilities on board can be reduced to a minimum. More space for cargo
carriage means increased profitability for the shipping company.

New ships design will lead to fuel Savings, for instance fuel savings by removing the deckhouse and systems serving the crew; less weight.
Ships will have a more aerodynamic profile.

Most marine accidents are caused by human errors (75 – 95 % ) major parts of this errors are caused by fatigue.

MAIN CHALLENGES – LEGAL ISSUES Allianz Risk Consulting
The international legal regime is decades out of date; a regulatory framework has to be found; existing rules and regulations require amendment or expansion.

MAIN OBSTACLES – LOSS OF COMMUNICATION Allianz Risk Consulting
Failure in communication between vessel and base can render the autonomous ship a ghost ship, helplessly drifting without a soul on board, a hazard to its owners, the owners of its cargo and the environment.

FUTURE PERSPECTIVESAllianz Risk Consulting
WHAT TYPE OF SHIPS WILL GO CREWLESS?
• Smaller ships that operate in confined areas with a simple and specific route, e.g. FinFerries “Falco” which operates in a Fjord between two ports. Initially these vessels will operate for legal and technical issues within a single country.
• Coastal vessels and river barges. Crew costs on river barges are 1/3 of the operational costs and in the short sea shipping segment the crew costs are between 10 - 20%. Clear economic driver.
• Smaller containership (Yara Birkeland 2020), general cargo vessels or bulkers. The total transport cost saving can be 10 – 20% by switching to unmanned operation, so there is a clear economic driver for R&D ships.
• On board ULCV > 15,500 TEU trans-Atlantic container ships we are only likely to see the lower levels of autonomy to aid the crew in navigation “Intelligence awareness systems”. There is no driver of efficiency behind such move, economic saving is quite marginal, crewing costs represents only a few percent of the total cost structure for a ULCV and potential fuel savings by removing deckhouse are small compared to the consumption.
• It is not likely in the oil and gas sector to remove crews from tankers and LNG carriers amid risks to safe operation.
Early adopters: Tugboats, workboats, research vessels ….
