This paper deals with conditional risk assessment considering hull girder failure of damaged vessels. Only damages amidships are investigated. Conditional risk in this paper is defined as the probability of a given damage multiplied by the probability of hull girder failure conditioned upon the given damage. Taking a double hull oil tanker at full load condition as an example, the 3-hour's failure probabilities conditioned upon damage properties are estimated. The statistical database for collision event in the HARDER project is adopted to assess the probability of sea state and damage. The sensitivity of 3-hour's failure probability to the sea state and damage properties is investigated. Furthermore, the conditional risk is also assessed.
