Results are presented of a benchmark study organised by the ISSC-ITTC Joint Committee on global linear wave loads on a container ship with forward speed. The study has three aims: 1. assessment of uncertainty in linear transfer functions due to different seakeeping methods and tools, 2. comparison with the similar benchmark study from 1996 and 3. qualitative comparison with experimental results of motions and loads. Seven institutes participated in the benchmark, with fifteen seakeeping codes, representative of the important linear seakeeping theories in use nowadays. The benchmark ship is known as Flokstra’s containership with well documented and accessible data of experimental results for motion and global wave loads and with all necessary information to perform seakeeping analysis. The comparative analysis is performed for vertical motions and vertical and horizontal global wave load components at three stations along the ship hull. Uncertainty in the short- and long-term predictions of vertical bending moment at midship caused by applications of different seakeeping codes is quantified.
