Take a look at the Latest Marine Structural Failures Programme here
Discover the most effective methods to improve ship life through tailored design and structural analysis.
This seminar provides integral information for designers and engineers for failure prevention.
Throughout this seminar you will:
- Analyse the root causes of failures for a complete understanding of how to improve structural integrity
- Understand how to eliminate future potential failures at the design stage
- Discuss effective failure prediction and prevention methods for improved ship life
- Improve your operations to mitigate failure from common operating conditions including instability and slamming

Practical Surgery: Put your questions to our structural integrity and design experts for tailored seminar content.
Case Study: Learn from real-life examples of failures to understand current issues including failures due to cargo liquefaction and for ships operating in ice.
Spotlight Session: Gain an in-depth understanding of identifying weak spots in the hull structure to predict potential failures.
Technical investigation: Explore the MSC Napoli incident and discuss the surveyors post-incident recommendations for a best-practice approach to failure mitigations.
One of the post-incident surveyors of the MSC Napoli will lead this session to consider:
- Hot topic roundtable discussions to learn from your peers
- Fatigue case study to assess the effect of operations on loads
- New sessions considering recent issues including ice loading and cargo failures
- New in-depth analysis of failure mitigation at the design stage
"Extremely useful and informative compared to other fatigue courses, it is more practical rather than theoretical"
