2017年7月，Gard通报了水产养殖场的情况及其对航行安全造成的威胁。从那时起，Gard参与了12起渔业养殖场声称遭商船损坏的索赔。索赔额从3,000美元到100,000美元不等，其中大部分事件发生在岚山和日照地区。在这些地区，贻贝和牡蛎养殖是水产养殖业的主要组成部分。当地的通讯代理—华泰保险经纪有限公司也在2018年8月7日发布的通函中表示，其已处理了以上两个地区发生的、约50起触碰养殖场的案件。我们还获悉，金塘附近水域发生的案件数量正在呈上升趋势。
在本篇文章中，我们将讨论中国水域养殖场频遭触碰的深层原因，以及降低风险的可行措施。此外，我们还将考察一起典型索赔案的预期过程。最后，我们将运用照片和图表等手段，解释当地养殖业的做法。

Increased risk of collision with aquaculture farms in Chinese waters
In July 2017 Gard reported on aquaculture farms and the dangers they pose to safe navigation. Since that time Gard has been involved in 12 claims where fishery farms have allegedly been damaged by commercial vessels. The amounts claimed ranged from USD 3,000 to USD 100,000 and the majority of these incidents occurred in the Lanshan and Rizhao areas where mussel and oyster cultivation form the bulk of aquaculture industry. Our local correspondent, Huatai Insurance Agency, has also indicated in their circular published on 7 August 2018 that they have handled some 50 fish farm collision cases in the aforementioned two areas. We have also been informed that the number of cases off Jintang are rising.
In this circular we discuss the underlying reasons for collisions with fish farms in Chinese waters and the actions available to reduce the risk. Furthermore, we also review the expected course of a typical claim. Finally, we will explain the local cultivation practices including photographs and diagrams.
