No. 35-NT(04)/PRY/2018 Dated: 21.02.2018 NT Wing Piracy Circular No. 01 of 2018 Sub.: Maritime Security Advisory 01 of 2018, for vessels calling the ports or transiting the Gulf of Guinea, on the account of increased piracy activity in this region - reg. For the attention of Ship Owners, Ship Managers, Shipping Agents, Ship Master, Charterers, Ship Builders, Ship Breakers Association, Classification Societies, recognized by Director General of Shipping, Non-exclusive Survey companies, Insurance Companies, Coastal State including Administrations of Union territories/Islands and Maritime Boards. 1. Piracy and armed robbery, in the Gulf of Guinea region, is becoming an increasing concern to the maritime sector due to the increase in activity in this region in comparison to the decline shown in other areas including the Somalian region. It is gathered that unlike pirates from Somalia who are after ransom, pirates in the West Africa Region in the past have resorted to either part /full cargo sale and/or ransom. 2. According to the IMB Piracy Reporting Centre (IMB-PRC), ten incidents of kidnappings involving 65 crew members took place in and around West African waters in 2017. However, no vessel hijacking took place in the Gulf of Guinea during the year 2017. 3. The situation in Gulf of Guinea region, especially at Cotonou anchorage, Benin has thereafter escalated with two tankers (with Indian crew) having been hijacked from this location, by February 2018. These vessels were released subsequently, with the crew members reported to be safe. A third incident had been reported of the attempt on an anchored product tanker on 17.02.2018 at Cotonou Anchorage, Benin. As the crew were watchful, Master could immediately sent an SSAS alert and all crew took shelter in the citadel. The IMB PRC received information from the owners of the vessel and thereafter informed the Benin Navy Maritime Ops Centre, who sent three patrol boats to the location immediately. The Navy personnel boarded the tanker, made a search and found no unauthorised persons onboard. The master and crew were found to be safe and they emerged from the citadel under the supervision of the Navy. 4. Additionally, the following armed robbery/piracy incidents were reported in 2018 in the West African region; Page 1 of 34.1. On 09.02.2018: around 50 nm SW of Bonny, Nigeria. Pirates boarded a vessel. Some crew members reported missing. 4.2. On 09.02.2018: around 8 nm west of Debundsha, Cameroon. Pirates attacked a fishing vessel. The crew are reported missing. 4.3. On 15.02.2018 at 1850 UTC in position 03:42.59n – 007:05.59e, around 40.62nm SSW of Bonny, Nigeria. Pirates fired upon a vessel. Due to the arrival of the navy ship, pirates aborted. 4.4. On 19.02.2018 at 0824 UTC in position 04:02.66n - 006:34.33e, around 25nm SE of Brass, Nigeria. Six pirates armed with rifles in a black hull coloured speed boat approached and attempted to board a tanker underway. Master raised the alarm, activated SSAS, took anti-piracy preventive measures and crew secured all access doors. The pirates made seven attempts to hook an aluminium ladder on the tanker’s railing but were unsuccessful due to the evasive manoeuvres. The pirates fired upon at the tanker and moved away. A Nigerian navy boat arrived at the scene. The tanker and crew are safe, and resumed her passage. 5. The investigation on these armed robbery/hijacking incidents are in progress. 6. The IMB Piracy Reporting Centre (IMB PRC) acts as a single point of contact for shipmasters anywhere in the world whose vessels have been attacked or robbed by pirates. All information received is immediately relayed to the local law enforcement agencies requesting assistance. Information is also immediately broadcast to all vessels in the Ocean region, providing vital intelligence and increasing awareness. The IMB PRC also shares information with the IMO, governmental, inter-governmental and law enforcement agencies including industry bodies to understand the nature of piracy and reduce its effects on crew, vessel and cargo. It is requested that the live piracy report of IMB PRC is monitored on a routine basis and is available at the following link: https://www.icc-ccs.org/index.php/piracy- reporting-centre/live-piracy-report 7. The Maritime Domain Awareness for Trade – Gulf of Guinea (MDAT-GoG). GoG provides a 24-hour manned service of military experts. It is a service operated by the French and UK navies from centres in Brest, France, and in Portsmouth, England and aims to develop, maintain and share details of the maritime domain picture of the waters off Africa’s western seaboard. The MDAT-GoG administers a Voluntary Reporting Area (VRA) scheme under which merchant vessels are encouraged to report position information while operating in the VRA. The MDAT-GoG receives reports, shares important updates and provides guidance on vessel operating patterns, security risks with the Gulf of Guinea maritime community. All vessels are encouraged to report to the MDAT-GoG using the existing reporting formats as per the current edition of the UK Maritime Security Chart Q6114 (Annexure - I). 8. MDAT-GoG can be contacted via email at watchkeepers@mdat-gog.org or telephone at +33(0)2 98 22 88 88. It may be, however, noted that MDAT-GoG does not coordinate responses to vessels under attack. Page 2 of 39. Although piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region in many ways differs from that of Somalia based piracy, most of the sections in the Best Management Practices developed by industry to help protect against Somalia based piracy is also valid in the Gulf of Guinea region. ‘Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region’ (Version 2, June 2016) has been developed by BIMCO, ICS, INTERCARGO and INTERTANKO, and supported by the NATO Shipping Centre (Annexure - II). 10. These Guidelines aim to bridge the gap between the advice currently found in ‘Best Management Practices for Protection against Somalia Based Piracy’ (BMP) and the prevailing situation in the Gulf of Guinea region. These guidelines should, therefore, be read in conjunction with BMP and make reference to BMP, wherever relevant. The Best Management Practice Ver 4: (dated 18 Aug 2011) is available at the following link; https://www.icc-ccs.org/images/stories/pdfs/bmp4.pdf. 11. The International Association of Dry Cargo Shipowners (Intercargo) has issued a joint industry alert on 14 February 2018 in response to the increasing threat of hijack and kidnap in the Gulf of Guinea (Annexure - III). 12. All CSO and Masters of vessels are advised to be extra cautious and to take necessary precautionary measures when navigating this area and are required to comply with the aforesaid guidelines and practices (Annexure - I to III & BMP). Additionally, vessels are advised to remain vigilant and maintain strict anti-piracy watch and measures in these areas. 13. This is issued with the approval of the Director General of Shipping (I/C).

Page 3 of 3Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region (Version 2, June 2016) (To be read in conjunction with the 4th edition of the Best Management Practices for Protection against Somalia Based Piracy as amended (BMP4) 1. Introduction Piracy and armed robbery (hereafter referred to as piracy) in the Gulf of Guinea region is an established criminal activity and is of increasing concern to the maritime sector. With attacks becoming more widespread and violent, including the increase in kidnapping for ransom, industry has now identified an urgent need to update these Guidelines. Although piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region in many ways differs from that of Somalia based piracy, large sections of the Best Management Practices already developed by industry to help protect against Somalia based piracy are also valid in the Gulf of Guinea region. Consequently, these Guidelines aim to bridge the gap between the advice currently found in BMP4 and the prevailing situation in the Gulf of Guinea region. These guidelines should therefore be read in conjunction with BMP4 and will make reference to BMP4 where relevant. These Guidelines have been developed by BIMCO, ICS, INTERCARGO and INTERTANKO, and are supported by NATO Shipping Centre. A soft copy of BMP4 can be found on the websites of these organisations. 2. Area for consideration Pirates in the Gulf of Guinea region are flexible in their operations so it is difficult to predict a precise area where a ship might fall victim to piracy. For the purpose of this guidance the area off the coasts of Ghana, Nigeria, Togo, Cameroon, and Benin can be regarded as an area in which the counter-piracy management practices should be considered. Attacks and armed robbery have occurred from as far south as Angola and north as Sierra Leone. In addition the LMA Joint War Committee defines the following "Listed Areas for Hull War, Piracy, Terrorism and Related Perils": • The territorial waters of Benin, Togo and Nigeria, plus • Nigerian Exclusive Economic Zone north of latitude 3º N, plus • Beninese Exclusive Economic Zones north of latitude 3º N. • Togolese Exclusive Economic Zone north of latitude 3º N. The LMA Joint War Committee listed areas should be checked regularly for changes. 3. Risk Assessment For the purpose of identifying suitable measures of prevention, mitigation and recovery in case of piracy, a ship and voyage specific risk assessment as recommended in Section 3 of BMP4 should be carried out prior _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016to entering the area described in Section 2 above . Not unlike the Ship Security Assessment described in the ISPS Code, the risk assessment should include, but may not be limited to, the following: • The threat (who are the pirates, what do they want to achieve, how do they attack, how do they board, which weapons do they use etc.?) • Background factors shaping the situation (visibility, sea-state, traffic patterns e.g. other commercial ships, fishermen and human traffickers etc.) • Possibilities for co-operation with military (escorting, employment of Vessel Protection Detachments, registering with authorities etc.) • The ship’s characteristics/vulnerabilities/inherent capabilities to withstand the threat (freeboard, speed, general arrangement etc.) • Ship’s procedures (drills, watch rosters, chain of command, decision making processes etc.) In addition to the information found in this document, supplementary information about the characteristics of the threat and regional background factors may be sought from regional reporting centres, Shipping Association websites, the IMB, commercial intelligence providers or local sources e.g. ships' agents as in the attached Annex. As also mentioned in BMP4, the risk assessment should take into consideration any statutory requirements, in particular those of the flag state and/or the coastal state. Other requirements dictated by company and insurance policies should also be taken into consideration. The following flow diagram provides further information. _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016The risk assessment process Much of this risk assessment already exists in BMP4, since it provides an overall list of which actions to take to defend against pirate attack. However, the guidance in BMP4 must be developed into specific actions to take and self-defence measures to apply on a ship-by-ship and voyage-by-voyage basis. For example, many pirate attacks in the Gulf of Guinea region occur whilst ships are at anchor or drifting, in which case BMP4 self-defence measures like "evasive maneuvering" are not readily applicable. Thus, the risk assessment must reflect the prevailing characteristics of the specific voyage and ship, and not just be a repetition of advice relating to a different geographical region and a different pirate modus operandi. Detailed guidance on preparing risk assessments can be found from a variety of sources including the ISPS code, which for example forms the base line for the BIMCO Ship and Voyage Specific Risk Assessment (SVSRA). 4. Typical Pirate Attacks The Gulf of Guinea "pirate business model" is primarily aimed at theft and kidnapping for ransom. Generally speaking, pirates in the Gulf of Guinea are more violent than their Somalia based colleagues. _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016Seafarer deaths remain common and Oceans Beyond Piracy have reported that in 2015, 23 people were been killed during pirate attacks. Pirate activity within the Gulf of Guinea can be split broadly into the following categories: • Armed Robbery – In general this is opportunistic, is violent, and occurs where vessels are approaching, drifting or anchored off ports. There have been instances across the Gulf of Guinea region e.g. off Lagos, in Port Harcourt, Bonny River, Cotonou and Lome. For the most part the intention is to take valuables from the safe, IT equipment, and personal effects. • Cargo theft – This occurs throughout the area described and often occurs in or about the STS transfer areas where ships are particularly vulnerable. In the main it is related to product and chemical tankers but there are also regular attacks and thefts on general cargo carriers . Vessels are hijacked for several days and cargo is transferred to a smaller vessel. These incidents are well- organised, often involving a criminal element with commercial interests ashore. Recent cargo thefts have demonstrated that pirates often have a maritime know-how allowing them to disable communications, operate the cargo system, etc. • Kidnapping – All seafarers are at risk.Instances of ships being attacked and seafarers taken ashore for ransom remain common. Current modus operandi is to take 4 to 5 seafarers – often the Master and Chief Engineer - as they command higher ransoms. There is a well-organized infrastructure that generally holds those kidnapped for 4 -6 weeks and little more as few hostages can survive longer in the environment they are held in captivity. It is estimated there could be as many as 11 groups operating in the Niger Delta and there is a growth in politically motivated kidnapping. The methodology employed in pirate attacks in the Gulf of Guinea region often share similar characteristics to those of Somalia based pirates (see BMP 4 Section 4), but there are some key differences. For example, The main threat is from approaches made by high-powered speedboats, and a recent incident involved a speedboat launched from an unidentified mothership. The risk of falling victim to a pirate attack is particularly high when the ship is at anchor or is drifting off a port e.g. close to pilot station. Another vulnerable situation is when conducting STS operations and the two ships are adrift and moored alongside each other. For the tanker sector, cargo theft results in stolen oil products being sold in the region. For the dry cargo and other sectors, violent robbery is more common. Attacks, both outside and inside territorial waters, appear to be the result of intelligence-led planning by the pirates, with particular products such as gasoil or gasoline being targeted in very well co-ordinated and executed operations. Companies and ships operating regularly in the region are likely to be at increased risk of falling subject to pirate intelligence collection operations and subsequent pirate attack. 5. Ship Movement Reporting Procedures Although this may change in future, at present there is no formal, centralised international ship movement reporting procedure in place in the Gulf of Guinea region. There are however a number of options for reporting incidents and particularly: Marine Domain Awareness for Trade – Gulf of Guinea (MDAT-GoG): _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016It is a service operated by the French and UK navies from centres in Brest, France, and in Portsmouth, England and aims to develop, maintain and share details of the maritime domain picture of the waters off Africa’s western seaboard. The MDAT-GoG administers a Voluntary Reporting Area (VRA) scheme under which merchant vessels are encouraged to report position information while operating in the VRA. The VRA as shown on Admiralty Chart Q6114, has been issued to clearly define an internationally recognised area, so ship operators and vessels transiting, trading or operating in West Africa can join a trusted reporting scheme. The provision of Admiralty Chart Q6114 to all vessels operating in the VRA is strongly recommended Suspicious activity and incidents reported to MDAT-GoG by shipping in the VRA, using the forms on the Chart and repeated at Annex B, assist in the creation of a detailed and accurate regional maritime domain picture. The analysis is used to produce security recommendations that are shared with seafarers, ship operators and law enforcement agencies to enhance risk awareness and improve incident response. The MDAT-GoG provides a 24-hour manned service of military experts. The MDAT-GoG receives reports, shares important updates and provides guidance on vessel operating patterns, security risks with the Gulf of Guinea maritime community. • The MDAT-GoG has no influence over the deployment of local military assets to assist merchant vessels which are attacked, but is linked with national and regional maritime operations centres and may be able to help direct them to the scene of an incident. • Dedicated naval staff collate data from a variety of sources to aid their understanding of the maritime environment. The voluntary position reports from vessels operating within the VRA are an important input to greater understanding of maritime activity - the information reported is used to inform other regional governmental organisations and inform recommendations to enhance security planning, incident response and investigations. Owners and operators should bring this reporting scheme to the attention of their ships to encourage vessels entering the VRA to report , make daily reports during transit and log a departure report when leaving. The contact details and details of the report format are shown at Annex B. Reporting: Vessels are encouraged to send regular reports, using the MDAT-GoGreporting forms as below: WHEN WHAT On entering the VRA Initial Report Daily** Daily Position Report On Departing the VRA Final Report By Exception By Exception Report ** At 0800 if convenient to daily routine** _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016How to Report? The MDAT-GoG reporting forms (see Annex C), should be used to make the reports described above. Email is the preferred method of communication but alternatively telephone, (see Annex A for contact details). Regional Maritime Rescue Coordination Centres: These are established at Monrovia and Lagos and are important points for safety reporting. See Section 13 International Maritime Bureau (IMB): Ships should report all incidents to the IMB reporting centre in order to accurately reflect the number and types of incident . See Section 13 There are a number of other reporting centres in the process of being established and it is expected that the Inter-regional coordination centre in Yaounde will be operational in the future. Individual flag states may well have their own national ship movement reporting procedures. Any flag state reporting requirements should be clarified and complied with. The above guidance is the best available at the time of publication, but is likely to change as reporting centres become operational and regional coordination and cooperation increases. Owners and Operators should monitor the developing situation in order to ensure that vessels operating in the region are aware of reporting options available to them. It is essential that each and every incident is reported in order to maintain pressure on coastal states to meet their obligations under UNCLOS and encourage the international community to support infrastructure and capacity building in the region. 6. Company Planning The Gulf of Guinea region is not subject to an established policing mechanism by international navies, and neither the UKMTO nor MSCHOA play a role in the region. The NATO Maritime Reporting Centre monitors the situation but plays no formal part. Company planning procedures outlined in Section 6 of BMP4 should be applied in the Gulf of Guinea region. The following important advice should be noted: • Communications with external parties should be kept to a minimum, with close attention paid to organising rendezvous points and waiting positions. For e-mail correspondence to Agents, Charterers, Chandlers etc. it is strongly recommended that address lists are controlled and that information within the e-mail is concise, containing the minimum that is legally required in order to fulfil requirements or contractual obligations. • Contractual arrangements should be put in place with a view to keeping vessels out of harm’s way. • Know your agents and avoid or minimize requirements where possible. Unnecessary interaction with other parties creates opportunities for information regarding the vessel’s position to be compromised. • If the ship trades regularly in the region it is recommended to alter arrangements once in a while to make it harder for criminals to predict where operations might take place. _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016In terms of the availability of armed escort vessels, the Nigerian Navy are known to offer licences to certain companies to employ naval personnel on board their escort vessels. Likewise, some companies offer Nigerian security forces as armed guards for deployment on board merchant ships. Such services should anyway only be contracted if a requirement exists following the risk assessment, and only as a supplement to ship protection measures outlined in BMP4. Using private armed guards in the Gulf of Guinea region is much more problematic than off Somalia, owing to the complex patchwork of legal, security, administrative, command and control interests that need to be addressed, and the following should be considered: • Care should be exercised when using private armed guards, as they are prevented by law from operating inside territorial waters of coastal states in the region, and authorities are known to enforce these regulations vigorously. • Local or Government forces subcontracted by PMSCs should only be used if they are legitimate, and trusted (see above). For example it is illegal to use Nigerian Maritime Police beyond the fairway buoy. 7. Master’s Planning Many of the Master’s planning procedures described in Section 7 of BMP4 also apply to the Gulf of Guinea, although there are no Group Transit schemes or national convoys. Given the modus operandi of the pirates operating in the Gulf of Guinea region, the Master should plan according to the following: • Rendezvous - Where possible, avoid waiting and slow steaming. Consider offering several alternative rendezvous points and advise rendezvous points at the last minute. If waiting, keep well off the coast (up to 200nm). Do not give away waiting positions. Do not drift and keep engines ready for immediate maneuvers. • Anchoring - Where practicable, a prolonged stay at anchorage is to be avoided. • Minimize use of VHF and use e-mail or secure satellite telephone instead. Where possible only answer known or legitimate callers on the VHF, bearing in mind that imposters are likely and may even appear in uniform. • The greatest risks of piracy are at night and these need to be factored into all planning. Where possible, operations should start and end during daylight hours. 8. Ship Protection Measures The ship protection measures described in Section 8 of BMP4 (except 8.15) also apply in the Gulf of Guinea region. When STS operations are expected to be conducted, extra attention should be paid to the use of physical protection measures. Although barbed wire can potentially make it very difficult to complete an STS operation, other protection measures should be considered to protect the ship from attack in these cases. _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016• Vessel hardening is likely to be quite effective in this region and a moving ship also makes an effective deterrent since, unlike Somalia based pirates, ladders are not often used to board ships. • During STS operations or when adrift, equipment such as fenders, anchor chains and hawse pipes can potentially provide a vulnerable point of access for attackers, and entry should be physically blocked. • Pirates detect and target vessels by sight and by the use of AIS. Therefore limit the use of lighting at night and reduce the power or turn off AIS. Unfortunately, this has a major drawback in that it may reduce the likelihood of an intervention by "friendly forces" if attacked. Consequently, AIS must be switched on immediately if the ship is boarded. • The use of citadels is an on owners/master’s choice but it should be borne in mind that their successful use in the Indian Ocean was predicated upon their being a strong chance of a Naval Intervention. The principles of their construction and use however remain the same as outlined in BMP4. Given the levels of violence perpetrated by Pirates, and if control of the engines can be maintained from the citadel, many think that this option is the safest and also one that prevents the ship from maneuvering in order to prevent cargo theft . • Owners should consider the placement of hidden position transmitting devices as one of the first actions of pirates is to disable all visible communication and tracking devices and aerials. 9. Pirate Attack The guidelines in BMP4 Section 9 are applicable with the exception of the role described for the UKMTO and MSCHOA. In the event of a pirate attack in the Gulf of Guinea region, the best way of alerting the local authorities of an attack is via the MDAT-GoG. Maintain contact with the MDAT-GoG preferably by telephone for as long as it is safe to do so. On receipt of information in relation to an attack, the MDAT-GoG will inform the appropriate national maritime operations centre and local authorities and will ensure all other vessels in the immediate vicinity are aware of the event. The following list of actions below should be considered if an attack is imminent: • If underway speed should be increased as much as possible to open the distance between the ship and the attackers. Try to steer a straight course to maintain maximum speed. Consider evasive actions if the circumstances dictate. • Initiate the ship’s pre-prepared emergency procedures. • Activate the Emergency Communication Plan. • Sound the emergency alarm and make an announcement in accordance with the Ship’s Emergency Plan. • Report the attack as soon as possible to MDAT-GoGby Phone and follow up with call to the Company Security Officer if the situation permits. • Activate the Ship Security Alert System (SSAS) which will alert your CSO and Flag State. Make a ‘Mayday’ call on VHF Ch. 16. • Send a distress message via the Digital Selective Calling system (DSC) and Inmarsat-C, as applicable. _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016• Ensure that the Automatic Identification System (AIS) is switched ON. • All crew, except those required on the bridge or in the engine room, should move to the Safe Muster Point or Citadel if constructed. The crew should be given as much protection as possible should the attackers get close enough to use guns. • If possible, alter course away from the approaching craft. When sea conditions allow, consider altering course to increase an approaching craft’s exposure to wind/waves. • Activate water spray and other self-defensive measures. • Confirm external doors and, where possible, internal public rooms and cabins, are fully secured. If possible pull-up external ladders and fenders. • Place the ship’s whistle/foghorn/alarm on Auto to demonstrate to any potential attacker that the ship is aware of the attack and is reacting to it. If communication is lost or difficult alternative options include: • The Regional Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre (RMRCC) in Lagos or • The RMCC Monrovia if in the western extremities of the GoG . The Lagos centre covering all coastal states from Benin to the DRC is run by the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and can be contacted via details shown in Section 13 of this Guidance. The Monrovia centre covering from Guinea to Ghana is run by the Liberian Maritime Administration and can be contacted as at Section 13. When contacted, the Lagos and Monrovia RMRCC will alert the military and/or coast guard forces in the region who will initiate a response if the necessary resources are available at the time of the alert. 10. If Pirates Take Control The advice in Section 10 of BMP4 is also applicable, again with the exception that UKMTO does not play a role in the Gulf of Guinea. Instead MDAT-GoG, Lagos RMRCC or Monrovia RMRCC should be contacted. As previously mentioned the pirates operating in the Gulf of Guinea region often use violence in order to subdue the crew. Therefore it is extremely important not to engage in a fight with the pirates, because this will entail great risk of the crew getting hurt or killed. NB: Records exist of an incident where an on-board naval guard detachment engaged in gun battle with attacking pirates leading to the killing of two navy personnel, and the kidnap for ransom of the remaining crew. Violent shipboard robberies can take place as a result of a previously unsuccessful attack on another vessel. Therefore: • Great care needs to be taken if your ship is boarded, as life is little valued by robbers. Compliance/submission to attackers is essential once a vessel has been taken. • Generally minimizing cash carried will make vessels less attractive in the longer run. Kidnap and Ransom in the Gulf of Guinea region is a growing trend. Experience shows attackers will board a vessel and loot the ship’s stores and steal personal belongings. Once this has been done they may kidnap key individuals e.g. the Master and Chief Engineer. Kidnap can serve two key purposes for the attackers: _________________________________________________________________________ Guidelines for Owners, Operators and Masters for protection against piracy in the Gulf of Guinea region V2 June 2016• Help the attackers escape. The presence of hostages may reduce the likelihood of security forces to engage in a firefight and; • For ransom. To maximise their profits from the attack or hijack. Each company or organisation will have a policy in place to cover the eventualities of Kidnap and Ransom. 11. In the Event of Military Action Section 11 of BMP4 fully applies. 12. Post Incident Reporting Section 12 of BMP4 and the related Annexes containing reporting formats also apply in the Gulf of Guinea region, however with the exception of involving the UKMTO and MSCHOA in the reporting. • As described in BMP4, all piracy incidents should be reported to the IMB in accordance with Annex A to this Guidance (for contact details, see Section 13). • In addition in the GoG incidents should be reported to Interpol via the West African Police Information System (WAPIS) Regional Bureau in Abidjan. ( see Section 13 for contact details) The relevant reporting format can be found in Annex A . 13.
