Abstract

Maritime accidents, share some factors already considered by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the researchers of the maritime world. The accelerated technological changes, has allowed significant improvement of human activities, in many cases, improving the effectiveness and efficiency in the majority of the fields, of which marine transport is not the exception. Unfortunately in some cases, new technologies have led to relaxation in safety, so the idea to establish some minimum parameters, it is essential to ensure the safety of human life at sea, for increase the prevention of accidents and protection maritime environment.
