Abstract

In 1998, the first BRM training, which was one of the safety countermeasures of the VLCC's accident in Tokyo Bay, was started in Japan. Recently, BRM training, which a full-mission ship-handling simulator is used for, is popularized widely. However, there are not many papers of verifying effectiveness on BRM training quantitatively. When it is compared with the training of ship-handling skill, there is difficulty in the verification of effect on BRM training. On the other hand, the verification of effect on BRM training is being required by the shipping management companies which asked for their crew's training. In this study, simulator experiments were carried out in order to verify effectiveness of BRM training quantitatively. The graduates of Japan Coast Guard Academy participated in the experiment as the trainee of BRM training, which a full-mission ship-handling simulator is used for. The indexes "TSA: Time to Situational Awareness", "DTSA: Difference in time of between target TSA and actual TSA", "LR: Level of Reporting" and others are successfully introduced, to verify of effect on BRM training.
