A Consequence-Based Response Framework for More Resilient Shipping Amidst Growing Uncertainty by Helen Thanopoulou, Siri Pettersen Strandenes

“…The 2011 Fukushima disaster and the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic are two major 21st century events that were least expected while being highly disruptive, having an immediate as well as longer-term impact on shipping operations. However, while pandemics are a recurrent phenomenon of the “known-knowns” type, the combination of phenomena which led to Fukushima had no assigned probability; hence, no preparedness was in place, as this was practically a unique occurrence in shipping. …”
