5 West Africa TAKORADI COMMENT In 2018, piracy and maritime crime in the Gulf of Guinea has remained concentrated in Nigerian waters. In particular, incidents remain most likely seaward of the Bonny Fairway Buoy and out to the southern extent of the JWC Listed Area. There have been a total of 108 incidents across the region this year, up 26% on However, the number of crew kidnapped over the same period is down 21%. Most notable among developments this year has been the sharp uptick in incidents recorded at Lagos Safe Anchorage Area, as well as the re-emergence of petro-piracy in 1H18 as a consequence of a strengthening oil market. More recently, the region has witnessed Nigerian criminal syndicates extending their area of interest with regard to hijackings, which have occurred as far south as Pointe-Noire. This is in sharp contrast to a preference for express kidnap for ransom that was largely confined to 50nm from the Nigerian coastline for much of
6 Indian Ocean Incidents ADEN # DATE TIME TARGET INCIDENT LATITUDE LONGITUDE SOURCE There have been no confirmed incidents in the Somali Basin & GoA in the last seven days.
7 Indian Ocean ADEN COMMENT In 2018, the southern Red Sea, Gulf of Aden and Somali Basin have witnessed at least twenty-seven incidents of piracy and maritime crime, down just four on Not only is it apparent that organised criminal syndicates remain intent on targeting vessels and their crew for financial gain, but emerging interests present new and potentially more complex threats, which are testing the limitations of BMP5. Piecemeal gains are at risk of being eroded if, as military statistics regarding the use of embarked security suggest, complacency becomes the norm. The robust, but atypical response from the military following the attempted hijack of KSL SYDNEY is indicative of the continued need for a firm deterrence. The military currently assess that piracy will likely remain sporadic and that any potential change in the security environment is subject to perceived provocative activity, such as illegal fishing. In recent weeks, Somalia s Ministry of Fisheries has permitted foreign fishing vessels not only to fish prize tuna species in Somali waters, but also to carry armed guards as they do so.
8 Asia Incidents TAWI-TAWI # DATE TIME TARGET INCIDENT LATITUDE LONGITUDE SOURCE There have been no confirmed incidents in Southeast Asia in the last seven days.
9 Asia TAWI-TAWI COMMENT In 2018, piracy and maritime crime across Southeast Asia has remained concentrated in areas typically exposed to organised criminal syndicates. While the rate of incidents remains largely unchanged with this year up fractionally on 2017, the number of kidnappings is down. There has also been a reduction in the share of incidents related to tankers, down 8% to just a quarter of all recorded crime in The vast majority of incidents continues to involve opportunist robbery at anchor, particularly in Eastern Kalimantan. Indeed off Samarinda, there has been a 133% increase in such activity when compared to This is in sharp contrast to the number of incidents taking place in the Singapore Straits, which has fallen by more than half over the same period.
10 Latin America Incidents # DATE TIME TARGET INCIDENT LATITUDE LONGITUDE SOURCE There have been no confirmed incidents in Latin America in the last seven days. CARACAS
11 Latin America CARACAS COMMENT In 2018 there have been more than thirty confirmed cases of piracy and maritime crime across Latin America. The vast majority of these incidents have centred on Venezuela and are likely the direct result of its socialist economy collapsing. There are however, other regions which continue to experience a pernicious threat from organised criminal syndicates, including the port cities of Guayaquil, Lima, Georgetown and Macapá. The overwhelming majority of incidents across this region occur in territorial waters and whilst vessels are at anchor. Incidents are typically opportunist in nature and readily mitigated with proportionate application of BMP5.
