APPLICATION OF FORMAL SAFETY ASSESSMENT FOR DRY DOCKING EVOLUTION
This research has evaluated the rules, guidelines and regulations related to docking a ship in floating-graving yards. Historical failure data analysis is carried out to identify associated components, equipment and the area of defects related to ship docking evolution problems. The current status of ship docking evolution is reviewed and possible sources which cause accidents are recognised. The major problems identified in this research are associated with risk modelling under circumstances where high levels of uncertainty exist. Following the identification of research needs, this work has developed several analytical models for the application of Formal Safety Assessment (FSA). Such models are subsequently demonstrated by their corresponding case studies with regards to application of FSA for ship docking evolution.

FINANCIAL ECONOMICS WEEK 2: FIRM INVESTMENT PROJECT ANALYSIS PART 1/3
TOOLS FOR PROJECT ANALYSIS A. NET PRESENT VALUE (NPV) In Week 1 we briefly looked at how to use NPV to evaluate an investment opportunity. I.e., accept a project if NPV>0, and reject it if NPV<0. In an environment with uncertainty, the NPV methods requires discounting the expected cash flows with a risk-adjusted discount rate. Idea of valuating a project: Project value=discounted value of expected payoffs using riskadjusted returns as discount rates Applying the NPV method to analyze a project amounts to: 1. Estimating and forecasting the project’s cash flows . 2. Finding an appropriate discount rate that reflects the riskiness of the project.
