As you read this, another vessel is being targeted for attack by Somali pirates operating in the Indian Ocean and around the Horn of Africa!
FTS - Maritime Security Services:
Acts of piracy cost the shipping industry up to $14 billion dollars a year. Millions of dollars are paid out in ransoms; millions more are lost in revenue from not having access to the ships while they are being held. Plus the millions spent on refitting the vessels once they have been returned. This cost is spread out to the consumers who pay higher prices to cover the cost of piracy.
National navies cannot protect shipping alone!
Only by taking actions themselves, will commercial shipping Lines be able to ensure their safety. Only by employing proactive security measures, will they be able to ensure the safety of the crews and cargo from dangerous acts of piracy.
FTS - Maritime Security;
A Professional Security agency dedicated to meeting the needs of the client in an ever changing environment to best protect their assets. Wherever and whenever needed, both on Sea and Land, FTS uses a proactive approach in providing a comprehensive security solution.
Although armed security teams have been able to defend against most attacks, they have not been able to defend against all. Only with the ability to keep pirates away from the clients vessels can their safety be assured.
