Comparison to other ship disasters
Titanic
Crashed into an iceberg (Atlantic Ocean)
2224 people on board – 1514 died
Financial loss:$2,500 000
Principessa Mafalda
One of the propeller shafts broke → water leakage (Coast of Brazil, Atlantic Ocean)
1264 people on board – 314 diedRescue vessels arrived on time but panic on board, first life boat filled with crew members.
Heavy compensation paid to the victims families.
Torrey Canyon
Went on short-cut: Ran aground on shallow water→ shipwrecked (West coast of Cornwall)
Environmental disaster: clearing up the oil: 1) detergents2) bombed down to burn off the oil spillage.
Criticism over Government’s delay in responding + Criticism on RAF and Royal Navy (75% of bombs were on target)
MV Sewol
Overloaded: illegally constructed to be able to carry more cargo - higher profits. Sudden turn →capsized(Southern coast of South Korea)
476 people on board - 304 died Late evacuation – passengers told to stay insideCaptain and crew members first to leave the ferry
False reports by media that all passengers have been saved.
UCL INSTITUTE FOR RISK AND DISASTER REDUCTIONUCL INSTITUTE FOR RISK AND DISASTER REDUCTION
AftermathTitanic:• International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) (1914): lifeboats for
all and lifeboat drills
Principessa Mafalda:• Italian Navy Board: New design for propeller shafts, better placement of
lifeboats
Torrey Canyon:Civil Liability Convention (1969):Liability for oil pollution MARPOL Convention (1973): Prevention of pollution of the marine environmentSTCW Convention (1978): Established requirements on training on an international level
MV Sewol:Hope for innovation on safety but in reality not much has changed after Sewol

Lessons learned: Policies and procedures
UCL INSTITUTE FOR RISK AND DISASTER REDUCTIONUCL INSTITUTE FOR RISK AND DISASTER REDUCTION
Conclusion and thoughtsIf best practice had been followed the disaster
shouldn’t have happened.
The disaster was a direct result of management failures and behaviours.
The cruise ship industry has been very responsive by implementing policies to prevent
a reoccurrence and improve safety.
Knowledge transfer from other sectors, such as aviation, to improve safety?
Did culture, deference and demeanour have any part to play?
How can the issues of language barriers be overcome?
