Autonomous Spilled Oil and Gas Tracking Buoy System and Application to Marine Disaster Prevention System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the ongoing project on autonomous spilled oil and gas tracking buoy system and application to marine disaster prevention system for 5 years since FY2011 (http://www.naoe.eng.osaka-u.ac.jp/~kato/project/). The objectives of this project are as (1)autonomous tracking and monitoring of spilled plumes of oil and gas from subsea production facilities by an underwater buoy robot, (2)autonomous tracking of spilled oil on the sea surface and transmission of useful data to a land station through satellites in real time by multiple floating buoy robots, (3)improvement of the accuracy of simulations for predicting diffusion and drifting of spilled oil and gas by incorporating the real-time data from these robots. This paper describes the first and second items on developments of robots.

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) as a Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) method is used to identify basic causes leading to an undesired event, to represent logical relation of these basic causes in leading to the event, and finally to calculate the probability of occurrence of this event. To conduct a quantitative FTA, one needs a fault tree along with failure data of the Basic Events (BEs). Someti...
