Currently, IMO discusses to develop international standard regulations for the use of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships(MASS), and as a preliminary work to develop them, it carries out RSE work to identify measures that might arise when the existing conventions are applied to MASS. The RSE work is done by the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC), the Legal Committee (LEG), and the Facilitation Committee (FAL) for the conventions under the purview of each committee. In this paper, based on the results of the RSE work performed by each committee, a comprehensive analysis of potential gaps and themes that require further discussion and consideration in the next stage of international standard regulations for the use of MASS is presented.
