  30. Summary of incidents where VDR evidence has been used • A vessel berthing at the builders yard for guarantee dry docking hit a jetty when under yard pilotage, sustaining $150,000 steel damage • A vessel dragged its anchor in high winds and touched another ship anchored to leeward. • A high speed craft incurred a close quarters incident with HM warship. • Vessel entering port in narrow channel struck an underwater object. • Vessel leaving N.W European port hit coaster glancing blow, with limited damage.

  31. Ownership of VDR recorded data

  32. Ownership of VDR recorded data: IMO A.861(20) • ……… Information contained in a VDR should be made available to both the Administrator and the shipowner …………. • The EU adds in its Directive :-

  33. Ownership of VDR recorded data:EU 2002/59/EC • ………. Data which has been collected from a VDR system shall be made available to the member State concerned in the event…….. This was followed up by the issue by IMO of Guidelines on Ownership and Recovery which laid down 5 basic rules covering :-

  34. VDR recorded data • Ownership

  35. VDR recorded data • Ownership • Recovery

  36. VDR recorded data • Ownership • Recovery • Custody

  37. VDR recorded data • Ownership • Recovery • Custody • Read-Out

  38. VDR recorded data • Ownership • Recovery • Custody • Read-Out • Access

  39. The Future of VDRs • Revisit standards in light of :- • Experience gained • Advances in technology

  40. VDRs – The Future • Widening of carriage Requirements • Tonnage • Voyage Routes
