Description: Container transport by inland waterway vessel is a particularly safe form of transport. Every year, millions of containers are transported safely and sustainably between the seaports on the one hand and hinterland terminals along the Rhine and other inland waterways on the other hand.
Nevertheless, there have been a number of accidents in recent years from which lessons can be learned. For example, in the spring of 2007 the Excelsior lost 31 containers, resulting in the Rhine being completely closed to navigation for more than a week. Also in the spring of 2007, 30 containers were lost overboard by the Arc-en-Ciel on the Seine, bringing navigation to a halt for a week. The Ferox capsized in Rotterdam in 2006.
The examples mentioned go to show that notwithstanding the fact that container transport is very safe, accidents do occur, which are attributable to stability defects. Stability defects can have a number of causes: incorrect stowage, incorrect information, for example about container weights, but insufficient knowledge of stability-related parameters may also play a role.
Stability is indeed part and parcel of inland waterway boatmen’s general training but it bears pointing out that ensuring that all inland navigation crews’ level of knowledge is kept up to the mark at all times is an important task.
With this in mind, the industry (ESO, EBU), Aquapol and CCNR have decided to publish this guide to good practice. This guide illustrates in an easy-to-remember way the basic principles of stability and tried and tested real-life examples with a positive impact on stability
