drifting


Explanation:
aanvaring - collision
aandrijving - drive or propulsor for propelling vessels

however, in this context you may wish to use 'drifting' instead if I understand correctly

neutral  Kitty Brussaard: Just 'drifting' doesn't fit the bill: 'drifting collision' or 'allision' would be more accurate. See references.

ramming contact vs drifting contact

A drifting contact occurs when a ship in the vicinity of a wind turbine experiences a failure in the propulsion engine or in the steering equipment.

http://tinyurl.com/okd4ybd

Er treden echter ook nieuwe typen ongevallen op, namelijk aanvaringen en aandrijvingen met het artificiële eiland. In SAMSON worden dit soort ongevallen aangeduid met respectievelijk rammings en drifting contacts;
• Een ramming (aanvaring) is het gevolg van een navigatiefout, wanneer de navigator van een schip, dat op ramkoers ligt met een object, niet of te laat reageert. Een navigatiefout kan verschillende oorzaken hebben, zoals onwetendheid, het niet zien van het object, het niet aanwezig zijn op de brug, onwel worden en niet kunnen reageren etc. De snelheid bij de aanvaring is hoog.

• Een drifting (aandrijving) treedt op wanneer een schip door een
machinestoring niet meer manoeuvreerbaar is. In eerste instantie zal men proberen voor anker te gaan, maar indien dit niet mogelijk is, is het schip overgeleverd aan wind, golven en stroom. Een driftend schip kan vervolgens tegen een object komen zonder dat men dit aan boord kan voorkomen. De aanvaring is dwarsscheeps en de snelheid gering.

Also called 'drifting collision / ramming collision'

Reference information:
"collision; allision

Both are used, in the U.S. law of admiralty, in reference to vessels that meet each other unexpectedly. In an allision, one of the vessels is stationary. In a collision, usually both are moving, although collision does not necessarily imply force from each of the clashing objects.

Since we have this differentiation in the terminology of admiralty, however, we should observe the distinction, if only in this limited context. E.g.: “The litigation before us arises out of a series of four collisions by ships over a two-month period.” Harcon Barge Co. v. D. & G. Boat Rentals, Inc., 746 F.2d 278, 283 (5th Cir. 1984).

Here allision would have been the better word: “This case arises out of a collision [read an allision] that allegedly occurred between a tug owned by Dow and a boat docked alongside the plaintiffs’ shrimp boat.” Gaspar v. Dowell Div., 750 F.2d 460, 461 (5th Cir. 1985). (The docked boat was stationary, presumably.)

But even specialized authorities have used collision in this way—e.g.: “The anchored vessel is almost, and usually quite, helpless to avoid collision, and moving vessels must keep clear of her.” John W. Griffin, The American Law of Collision § 145, at 348 (1949). See allide.

Although allision most commonly applies to two ships, it may also apply to a ship and any stationary object (as a bridge or dock)—e.g.:

• “In the second ruling, the district court addressed liability issues surrounding allisions that occurred in the St. Louis harbor when barges from the M/V Anne Holly's tow allided with a pier of the Eads Bridge and a moored gambling vessel, the Admiral.”In re American Milling Co., 409 F.3d 1005, 1007 (8th Cir. 2005).
• “During Hurricane Katrina, the MISS TIFf [read Miss Tiff] and the JACK KING [read Jack King] broke from their moorings on the east branch of the Pascagoula River and allided [read collided] with a bridge of Interstate 10 approximately 4.7 miles away.”In re Signal Int'l, LLC, 579 F.3d 478, 484 (5th Cir. 2009).

That is:

collision + allision = vessels that meet each other unexpectedly

(1) allision: one of the vessels is stationary
(2) collision: usually both are moving, although collision does not necessarily imply force from each of the clashing objects

Webster's:

allision:

1. obsolete: the action of dashing against or striking upon
2. the running of one ship upon another ship that is stationary — distinguished from collision

collision:

1. the action or an instance of colliding, violent encounter, or forceful striking together typically by accident and so as to harm or impede
a collision between the two ships
the collision of the car with the trolley

"Allision:
• Ramming of buoy, marker
• Ramming of quay
• Collision with floating objects

Grounding:
• Powered grounding
• Intentional grounding
• Drift grounding

Collision:
• With other vessel
• With multiple vessels

[…]

Hence the damage will most likely be minor and local. The drifting collisions are therefore not analysed further."

agree  Kitty Brussaard: I'm inclined towards 'drifting collision'. / Indeed, allision (as opposed to collision / powered collision / ramming / ramming collision) would also be fine.

Reference: Drifting collisions vs powered collisions

Reference information:
1.2 Definitions
1.2.1 Collisions
Collisions can be divided into two groups:
• Powered collisions (vessel moving under power towards the installation)
• Drifting collisions (vessel drifting towards the installation)

Powered collisions include navigational/manoeuvring errors (human/technical failures), watch keeping failure, and bad visibility/ineffective radar use. A drifting vessel is a vessel that has lost its propulsion or steerage, or has experienced a progressive failure of anchor lines or towline and is drifting only under the influence of environmental forces.
http://www.ogp.org.uk/pubs/434-16.pdf

One of the major hazards to which offshore installations are exposed is collision risk from ships, fishing vessels and visiting infield vessels and shuttle tankers.
(...)
The nature of the analysis differs depending on the type of vessel being assessed. For example, for passing ships both powered collisions due to watchkeeper failure, and drifting collisions due to engine failure, are assessed. For shuttle tankers, the risks of a drive-off or drift-off incident towards the FPSO are considered. In all cases, the consequences are evaluated in terms of risk to the physical structure (energy of impact based on the displacement tonnage and speed of the colliding vessel) and to the personnel onboard (PLL and IRPA).

agree  Barend van Zadelhoff: This is what I found as well. And I like this option, that is, 'powered' vs 'drifting'.
