2. Content
Background
Operational development of co-operation, transparency and sharing
Possibilities – example SKYPE with the Directorate of Fisheries Analytical Unit
Practical exercise
Sum up

3. Background
Countries have different capacity and possibilities to develop MCS tools
Therefore, we should
cooperate,
be transparent and
share intelligence
Technical possibilities
Remote monitoring and surveillance of activity at sea
Benefits; risk based approach, cost effectiveness, develop cooperation etc..

4. Operational possibilities
Use of Automatic Identification System (AIS)
Norwegian Coastal Administration owner of 2 satellites
Passing “Pole to Pole”
Started in 2001
All AIS activity received by these satellites are stored in a Data Base
Main purpose of AIS is a anti-collision system
However
Used as an intelligence tool to monitor activity at sea, such as fisheries, oil spill from vessels etc..
Norway are willing to share to prevent, deter and eliminate illegal, underreported and unregulated fisheries

5. SKYPE exercise Call up/SKYPE with the Analytical Unit in Norway
Back up maps

6. High seas area in the South West Pacific

7. Blue spots with a number, which indicate the number of vessels in the area of the spot. Red circle one of the spots 12 different objects

8. Same 12 objects

9. One object with name and MMSI number
One object with name and MMSI number. 7 buttons for different functions regarding this object

10. List of identification of the objects

11. One vessels movement for 2 months

12. One vessel over a longer period

13. Some activity over a period. Both in high seas and inside EEZ

14. Example possible transhipment between reefer and fishing vessel

15. The reefers activity before and after possible transhipment

16. Closer tracking of the alongside operation

17. Example of another possible transhipment

18. Sum Up
Technically possible to cooperate in this way and share intelligence in real time
Establish possible cooperation
Need to be transparent to share relevant information
Track activity back in time
Follow special vessels or vessel groups
Follow vessels from special Flag States
Such information in connection with other intelligence
Creativity is important
