Abstract: Following an introduction to containerships, formal safety assessment and its development in the shipping industry are described. Containership accident statistics are studied and discussed. This is followed by a description of containership characteristics and a proposed formal safety assessment methodology for containerships. Further development in formal safety assessment in the context of containership safety is finally discussed in detail.
