Since 2008, international naval forces have worked with the shipping industry and individual companies to combat piracy in the High Risk Area. Four specialist organizations work together to support merchant shipping on a day to day basis – the NSC, MSCHOA, UKMTO and MARLO.
These organizations provide a range of products and services to companies, ships’ masters and their service providers to assist them in planning and conducting a safe passage through the Piracy High Risk Area (HRA).
We have created a document that describes these tools and how they support the various stages of a transit through the HRA.
