Abstract

Simulation analysis on drifting of an oil tanker of 300,000 tons deadweight (DWT) after cable breaking was done with a large ship maneuver simulator. Risks such as being stranded and colliding into other docks or ships are illustrated when cable breaking accident happens to a large ship under different wind and current directions. Specific emergency countermeasures are proposed to ensure safety operation.
