West Africa
GOG Gulf of Guinea
Navigating West Africa’s waters can be challenging especially because local laws and authorities don’t allow armed guards from private security companies’ onboard vessels. To ensure our clients still get the necessary protection, through our regional partners, we can offer armed security escort vessels (SEVs) in the region. Britannia offers reliable and secure escort vessels for ships navigating West African waters with each SEV manned by a team of 8 Local Naval Armed Guards. The SEV will be on hand to personally escort your vessel into/out of local ports up to 200 nautical miles. All RV locations are agreed upon by the client to ensure there is no disruption to your vessels.
