Study on Risk Identification and Prevention and Control Measures for the Transportation of Hazardous Goods by Ships

Abstract

The transportation of hazardous goods by ships is a core link in the global supply chain. Its risks are characterized by suddenness, diffusibility, and high harmfulness. Once an accident occurs, it will cause catastrophic consequences to personal safety, marine ecology, and the shipping economy. Based on the four-dimensional analysis framework of "Man-Machine-Environment-Management", this paper systematically identifies the core risk points in the entire process of consignment, packing, navigation, unloading, and emergency disposal of hazardous goods by ships, and in-depth analyzes the technical bottlenecks, management loopholes, and external incentives that breed risks. By integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation Method, a risk assessment model is constructed to realize the quantitative characterization of risk levels and the accurate positioning of key management and control nodes. On this basis, from four dimensions of technological innovation, system improvement, management optimization, and emergency enhancement, an integrated "Early Warning-Prevention and Control-Disposal" prevention and control system is proposed, providing theoretical support and practical paths for the safety management of hazardous goods transportation by ships.
