In Rijeka, he was the General Engineer of the General Directorate of the Shipbuilding Industry (1951–1953), an advisor to the Ethiopian government for planning and economic development (1957–1961), a regional advisor for Africa and head of the Energy Department of the UN Economic Commission for Europe (1961–1965), and headed the development sector of the Port of Rijeka (1970–1974).

As an author, Prikril distinguished himself with numerous works on maritime history and warfare. Among his most famous books are The Hell of the Pacific (1954), The Battle for the Mediterranean (1956), The Invisible Enemy in the Atlantic (1958), and the three-part series Three Thousand Years of Naval Wars (1985). His works are characterized by detailed analysis of naval battles and strategic insights, which significantly contributed to the understanding of maritime history.
