System resilience has become a new perspective of safety engineering in recent years. It focuses on full-time response to adverse events. The different resilience system strategies are studied to enhance the system's ability to tolerate negative events. Organizational resilience applies resilience methods to the organizational structure, function and interactive behavior of the social-technology system. Water transport system is a complex social-technical system and development of technology makes the degree of coupling between the staff and physical system increase, so that human and organizational factors play a more important role in system safety. The water transport system is a kind of transportation with high risk, high concentration, high autonomy and decentralized system. This paper mainly studies group unit formed by people and organizations in water transport system and discusses the role of organizational factors in water traffic accidents by establishing the interaction of organizational units. Finally, this paper analyzes the occurrence and evolution of the accident from the perspective of organizational resilience through a case study of the “Oriental Star” accident.
