The purpose of the investigation, the second part of the Prince William Sound Disabled Tanker Towing Study, was to evaluate, using computer simulations, the capability of existing escort vessels in Prince William Sound, Alaska, and to examine alternatives, if any, that could enhance escort and rescue towing capabilities in a worst case failure scenario. The study was subsequently expanded to include a parametric study to investigate the consequences of variants from the worst case. The parametric variables included wind speed, tanker speed, failure rudder angle, failure recognition time and tug notification time. The results of both the worst case scenarios and the parametric study are presented herein.
