Abstract

The Maritime Safety Act established restrictions for the passage of oil tankers, prohibiting vessesl carrying more than 1,500 kiloliters of oil or 1,500 tons of a hazardous liquid substance. Prohibited vessels that do not satisfy the restrictions are allowed to enter and depart from a nearby port from the outer sea area to minimize the time and distance the oil tanker must navigate in the prohibited area. Therefore, such regulation should not be construed as referring to inshore traffic. In this study, the traffic volume of coastal tankers that do not use the approaching channels for specific sea areas near Yeosu and Gwangyang Port was analyzed, and the cargo loads of these ships were investigated. The results of this study should be used to allow tankers to minimize the time and distance of navigation in prohibited areas. According to the survey, 16 vessels, 51.6 % of the 31 vessels using inshore traffic included in the study, were loaded with more than 1,500 tons of cargo. This is not appropriate according to the legislation for oil tanker passage. Therefore, in this study, sea routes have been proposed that connect with the approaching channels of specific sea areas, from the outer sea areas of restricted passages. Regulations have also been proposed for the entry and departure of oil tankers around Yeosu and Gwangyang Port.

해사안전법에서는 기름 1,500킬로리터 이상 또는 유해액체물질 1,500톤 이상을 싣고 운반하는 유조선에 대하여 통항을 금지하는 유조선통항금지해역을 설정하고 있다. 이러한 선박이 유조선통항금지해역 내에 위치한 항만에 입출항하는 경우 유조선통항금지해역 바깥쪽 해역에서부터 항구까지의 거리가 가장 가까운 항로를 이용하여 입출항하도록 허용된다. 이는 유조선이 유조선통항금지해역에서 항행하는 시간이나 거리를 최소화하기 위한 것으로, 연안통항대를 이용한다는 의미로 해석되어서는 아니된다. 본 연구에서는 여수 광양항 특정해역 진입수로를 이용하지 않는 연안유조선의 교통량을 분석하고, 선박의 선적화물량을 조사하였다. 조사기간 중 연안통항대를 이용하는 총 31척의 연안유조선 중 51.6 %에 해당하는 16척의 선박은 1,500톤 이상의 화물을 적재한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 유조선통항금지해역의 입법취지에 타당하지 않는 것으로, 본 연구에서는 유조선통항금지해역의 바깥쪽 해역으로부터 특정해역 진입수로까지를 연결하는 해역을 설정하여 여수 광양항 유조선 입출항 항법 규정(안)을 제시하였다.
