We believe in taking an objective approach that deals with the threat of maritime piracy preventatively. We do this by implementing appropriate systems and using both knowledge and awareness to identify and nullify risks.

At FORTE Maritime Security Services, we ensure that each of our trained security people fully understands their individual role and exercises high levels of observation. This enables security teams, mainly by using hardening, to demonstrate to pirates that the vessel is far from being an easy target.

By taking this robust approach, the pirates or terrorists know how difficult a challenge the vessel would be to attack and so are more likely to move on to easier target.

At Forte Maritime Security, we take pride in providing both armed and unarmed security officers, carefully selected for their expertise, professionalism, and ability to communicate effectively in high-pressure environments.

Our personnel are exclusively recruited from elite military backgrounds, including former Navy SEALs and Special Forces units. Their extensive operational experience, combined with our comprehensive in-house training programs, ensures they are fully equipped to safeguard vessels navigating high-risk maritime regions.

Our teams legally embark vessels in proximity to high-risk zones and remain on board throughout the transit. Prior to entering these areas, they conduct thorough security audits and implement all necessary preventative measures and countermeasures to mitigate potential threats. Each officer is equipped with specialized gear, including approved firearms, tactical uniforms, protective gloves, night vision equipment, satellite communications, and advanced trauma care training.

We operate across all recognized high-risk maritime corridors and offer real-time, 24/7 intelligence reporting on potential threats along your vessel’s intended route. This critical information is continuously shared with your organization, your crew, and our onboard team to ensure seamless coordination and maximum situational awareness.

Services

Forte Maritime Security provides integrated maritime security solutions for vessels operating to and from West African ports and offshore terminals, supporting CSOs and operators in effectively managing regional risk exposure.

Our services include the arrangement of authorized naval escorts, deployment of accredited armed security personnel where permitted, or a tailored combination of both, always in full compliance with Flag State, Coastal State, and Port State regulations.

Prior to departure, FMS conducts structured Pre-Departure Security Inspections (PDSI), including systematic searches for stowaways, narcotics, contraband, and unauthorized access risks, reducing the likelihood of delays, penalties, or legal complications.

Leveraging in-depth regional knowledge and established cooperation with vetted local authorities and security partners, all operations are executed within the applicable legal framework, ensuring transparency, compliance, and operational continuity.

FMS enhances voyage security, protects crew and cargo integrity, and enables operators to maintain schedule reliability while minimizing exposure to security and insurance-related risks.
