Safety In The Sea

Maritime Safety And Security Industries

Increasing globalisation is presenting all the maritime activities with new challenges and threats, which are:

• Monitoring sea transport to prevent and protect against threats such as terrorist attacks, piracy and illicit trafficking.
• Supervising maritime activity to protect marine resources, preserve the environment and provide assistance to people and goods.

Against this background, which is provoking the introduction of stronger legislative and regulatory measures as well as increased government action at sea in pursuit of a global approach to maritime and environmental challenges, French manufacturers have developed solutions, systems and equipment specially for these fields.

Most of these manufacturers are members of the GICAN Maritime Security, Safety and Environment Committee (see page 28).

To combat piracy, a work group initiated in 2010 by the French Maritime Cluster with the members of the GICAN and Armateurs de France, established a project for the self-protection of ships, a non-lethal self-defence system using automatic subsystems installed on board vessels.

As an additional anti-piracy measure, the French Maritime Cluster formed a task force in 2010 made up of equipment suppliers, the industry association Armateurs de France, equipment designers and users, and the French Navy, which has resulted in the launch of a ship self-protection project, BlueDome. This relates to a non-lethal system of self-defence using automated subsystems fitted on board vessels that provide an effective, modular, simple to use, economic system of protection.

A consortium of nine companies has been set up to develop this project. The self-protection system, currently in demonstration phase, is due to market early 2015.

Most of these manufacturers include the leaders of the Defence and Security sectors
