CHAPTER I
PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
Fire at sea is much different from fire on land. If a fire breaks out in an
office building, there is a danger, but there is always a chance of escape. When you
get out of the building, you are safe. At sea, it is totally different, because the ship
is surrounded by water and in most case, far from land. The only escape is by
means of a lifeboat or a life raft. Bad weather may still make you in great danger
even you have been evacuated from a blazing ship onto a lifeboat. Many of the
greatest maritime tragedies have involved fire, especially fire onboard passenger
ships: the Morro Castle, the Lakonia, and the Scandinavian Star are all examples.
Hundreds of lives were lost in these accidents.Fire is one of the major causes of
total loss. Statistics shows that fire and explosion amounts to one fourth of the
maritime casualties of total loss.
Fire on ships are extremely dangerous to human lives.We must increase fire
safety by improving the design of the ship and using new technologies. The crew
in the first place should be provided with a safe ship by design. This would then
lead to as low asreasonably possible risk levels being able to be maintained
throughout the operational life of that ship. Matthewson (1994)

According to Marine Insight (2012), the best way to deal with fires on
board ships is to prevent them rather than letting them occur. Breaking out of fire in
a place where no fire exists is called “ignition” whereas “flash” is a term use for
fire eruption in a new place as a result of flames from an existing fire in a nearby

danger of fire is from a leaky high pressure fuel pipe. Oil leaking from such pipe
