Abstract

The purpose of Speed limit at sea is to keep harbor calmness, to maintain efficient traffic flow and to prevent maritime accidents. The Korean Regional Maritime Affairs and Port Office(KRMAPO) specified and enforced the ship's speed limits at the 19 harbors around the Korean coasts. However, problems have been raised to the adequacy of speed limits. This paper made a research on the speed limit set standards, analyzed vessel traffic survey and the dilemma on the specified speed limits imposed by KRMAPO. The result of this study has shown an overall average of 48 % violation rate on speed limit with passenger ships and large vessels of more than 5,000 tons having higher violation rate. Average speed was higher than the limit speed in some harbors and deviation of 4.2 to 5.2 knots was investigated. Further, harbors having higher average speed also have higher deviation accident incidence. Therefore, this paper had confirmed that there is a need for institutional review and improvement of Korea's port and fairways speed traffic management.

해상에서 제한속력은 항만 정온도(Calmness) 유지와 원활한 교통흐름 유도, 해양사고 방지에 목적이 있다. 우리나라는 현재 19개 항만에서 제한속력을 지정하여 사용 중에 있으나, 제한속력 적절성과 설정 기준에 대하여 문제가 제기되고 있다. 본 연구는 현재 시행중인 제한속력에 대한 검토와 제한속력 설정 기준과 표준 모델 개발의 필요성을 확인하기 위한 기초 연구로서, 우리나라 항만과 접근수로에 대한 제한속력과 선박 통항 실태를 조사 분석하였다. 조사 분석 결과 전체 평균 48 %의 위반율을 보이고 있었으며 여객선과 5.000톤 이상의 중 대형 선박에서 위반율이 높았다. 또한 평균속력이 제한속력 보다 높은 지역이 있었으며 선박간의 속력 편차도 4.2-5.2노트로 조사되었다. 평균속력과 속력 편차가 높은 항만일수록 해양사고율도 높았다. 따라서 선박 통항속력 관리에 대한 제도적 검토와 개선이 필요한 실정이다.
