Maritime Security Services.
We have extensive experience in maritime-related security services and knowledge of maritime domains, particularly the Gulf of Guinea and Nigeria’s inland waterways. We also have extensive understanding of both the inherent and associated risks to maritime assets, such as: vessels, cargo, master, and crew in the maritime environment.
Working in partnership with Nigeria’s law enforcement organizations, we provide armed and unarmed teams that are highly qualified and meet international and acceptable standards. They are regularly vetted and continually orientated to meet expectations.
ISPS Ship/Port Facility Assessment
We can supply an ISPS-qualified/compliant assessor (according to para 8.4-B) to inspect your vessel, Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit (MODU), or installation to help you gain flag state approval and obtain the mandatory ISPS Certificate of compliance.
The assessor will be able to produce your Ship or Port Facility Security assessment in line with the requirements of the ISPS code and outline a Ship or Port Facility Security Plan. We will provide guidance and instruction throughout the ISPS approval process.
