TANKER MARKET • Deep concern that the current tanker market rates are consistently below ship owners’ operating costs. • INTERTANKO’s Chairman, Capt Graham Westgarth “If these rate levels continue for a long period, this could lead to a situation where sustainability of the oil transportation industry is threatened.” “Our Members operate tankers to the highest standards and will continue to do so. Operating for a prolonged period in an environment where tanker owners are not even covering their operating costs is obviously not a situation that can be maintained.”

  18. PIRACY INTERTANKO FOCUS • Actions members can take to protect themselves • Actions we want governments to take to protect our members

  19. FOCUS AREAS - INDUSTRY • Best Management Practices (BMP) • Citadels • Armed guards

  20. BMP4 Three essential requirements that cannot be over emphasized: • Register with MSCHOA • Report to UKMTO • Implement Self Protection Measures

  21. CITADELS Industry developed guidance on citadels • Describes the construction and use of a Citadel in order to provide effective protection against determined intrusion • Guidance does not recommend or endorse the use of a Citadel; aim to present the relevant facts to enable the Ship Owner/Operator to reach a reasoned conclusion as to whether or not to utilise a Citadel • Guidance has been approved by NATO, EUNAFOR and CMF and is available on their web sites

  22. ARMED GUARDS INTERTANKO position regarding the use of armed guards • INTERTANKO believes it is the responsibility of the international navies to ensure the right of free passage on the high seas including the use of vessel protection detachments on merchant ships • INTERTANKO does not advocate the arming ships' crews • INTERTANKO believes that the use of private armed guards or private security forces onboard merchant ships has to be a matter for each individual owner or manager to assess as part of their own voyage risk assessment

  23. ARMED GUARDS IMO Maritime Safety Committee • MSC.1/Circ.1405 – Interim Guidance to Shipowners, Ship Operators and Ship Masters on the use of Privately Contracted Armed Security Personnel on Board Ships in the High Risk Area • MSC.1/Circ.1406 – Interim Recommendations for Flag States regarding the use of Privately Contracted Armed Security Personnel on Board Ships in the High Risk Area • MSC.1/Circ.1408 – Interim Recommendations for Port and Coastal States regarding the use of Privately Contracted Armed Security Personnel on Board Ships in the High Risk Area

  24. FOCUS AREAS - GOVTS • Increased "Government Will" to eradicate piracy off Somalia • Cease the use of mother ships • Increased prosecution of convicted pirates • Increased naval assets in the region • Increased public awareness to drive the desired increase in "Government Will“ • Action to address the root cause of piracy ashore in Somalia
