The Anti-Piracy mission is four-pronged strategy of Preparation, Early Detection, Deterrence and Avoidance. MDF invests heavily in screening and training aimed towards avoiding the use of lethal force on board the client vessel.

MDF provides the crew with the assurance they need not to fear the JWC/HRPA passage thus, eliminating issues of refusal to sail or crew bonuses.

 

MDF endorses the measures laid out in Best Management Practices (“BMP”) and provides the Owner with guidance and support through the process of implementing BMP on board the vessel.

Prior to or upon embarkation, MDF conducts a thorough and precise Vessel Security Assessment (“VSA”), which will be reviewed and approved by the Owner and or Master; upon approval installation of the security measures will be implemented by MDF team.
