El jefe del Centro de Control de Tráfico y Salvamento Marítimo de Fisterra, Manuel Capeáns, es capaz de resumir en cifras los 20 años que han transcurrido desde la marea negra del Prestige y, entre ellas, se fija en una: en el medio millar de incidencias en la navegación “importantes” vividas en dos décadas.

 

“Quedar a la deriva”, explica Capeáns en una entrevista con Efe, ha sido la única coincidencia entre esos 500 casos resueltos de modo satisfactorio y el desastre ecológico del resquebrajado petrolero repleto de fuel que en 2002, después de seis días de rumbo errático esparciendo su carga, se partió y zozobró. 

¿Estamos expuestos a la posibilidad de un accidente?

The country’s first ballistic missile nuclear submarine (SSMN) INS Arihant carried out a successful launch of a Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile (SLBM) on Friday, validating India’s second strike nuclear capability.

 

“The successful user training launch of the SLBM by INS Arihant is significant to prove crew competency and validate the SSBN programme, a key element of India’s nuclear deterrence capability,” the Ministry said.

 

In November 2019, India formally declared its nuclear triad, stated in its nuclear doctrine, operational after INS Arihant completed its first deterrence patrol which means Arihant has begun prowling the deep seas carrying ballistic

Dr Malcolm Cook examines the changes taking place in maritime, as a human element expert and member of the IMarEST’s Human Element Working Group, dispelling myths about how people act and think, in the context of preventing accidents and promoting safety.

The changes that are happening in maritime will present new problems and new challenges. Greater awareness about the role of accidents in the learning process, promoting safety culture and understanding how the human operators respond to accidents will make for a safer transition. 

Myth 1: People are to blame 80% of the time
