Latest IMB Piracy Annual Report revealed that the Gulf of Guinea remains a hot spot for piracy incidents since 135 crew were kidnapped from their vessels in 2020, with GoG accounting for over 95% of crew numbers kidnapped. On the other side of the ocean, although no incident reported in Somalia, IMB advises crew to always maintain vigilance.

  • What is fueling piracy attacks in GoG & new areas of attention
  • Key anti-piracy measures and security challenges for the operators
  • Is there a need for additional BMP?
  • Key actions towards a more security resilience industry: Lessons learned and the way forward
