HM Coastguard
The Future Coastguard Programme is intended
to modernise the existing Service in a manner
that provides effective and efficient provision into
the future whilst maintaining the current quality
of service.

HM Coastguard
There are two operational pillars to the
Coastguard service:
Maritime Operations - (which this presentation
addresses) is focussed on the seafaring
community, the UK’s seaborne and offshore
interests and the initiation and coordination of all
maritime and coastal emergency response
Coastal Operations - which is focussed on the
safety of users of the UK coastline, including
coastal search and rescue provision

Maritime Surveillance
Maritime Surveillance: The systematic and
continuous observation of the maritime domain
to achieve effective situational awareness.
Maritime Domain Awareness: The
understanding of activities carried out in the
maritime domain to support timely decision
making in the fields of Maritime Security and
Maritime Safety.

Why

Maritime Operations Methods
Generates a maritime picture using information
from a variety of sources
Detects threats to safety, the environment and
security at an early stage through awareness of
deviations from the normal
Proactive as well as reactive
Manages risk
Maritime Operations Methods
Assesses background risk
Deploys resources in anticipation
Provides tactical and strategic decision making
Ensures resilience
Provides national command for major maritime
incidents
Manages Resources to meet
Demand
Transition
The detail of how National Maritime Operations service network will be
developed over the next 12 months.
The UK has been divided into Zones
which are grouped into Areas of
Responsibility and these are under the
control of maritime operations teams
based in the NMOC or CGOC.
These groupings will be based on a
risk assessment that considers
predicted activity, resourcing and any
other relevant factors such as events,
weather forecast, etc.
Please note these are representative areas.
ICCS provides:
Distribution of communications into a
maximum of 40 functional areas
Up to 30 radio channels per area
Ability to monitor 15 channels/aerials
on a single terminal screen
Telephones (inc. 999) directed according
to post code (as now)
Intercom facility (desk to desk anywhere
sharing same ICCS)
Vision Direct dial facility
GMDSS A1 and A2 DSC Alerts
Resource Information by Vision area
The systems that provide:
Communications.
Incident and Information management
Domain awareness.
Will have aligned pre-defined ‘Functional /
Work’ areas
Resource Management
(A case study)
A distress alert initiates the opening of
an incident. This is being coordinated
by the CGOC with responsibility for
that area on that day. All on-duty
teams nationally will be aware of this
(and all other) incident(s) as they
share the same ViSION system
Resource Management
(A case study)
As the demands of the incident
increase the workload on the team at
the CGOC, the Controller responsible
for that Centre,
has a number of options for managing
that workload. These include any
combination or all of:
Delegating away non-emergency
work across the network
Adding resource (virtual operators)
Reducing the size of Area
In this case, in consultation with the
Commander a change of AOR for the
CGOCand flank centres
is agreed thus enabling the
coordinating team to focus on the
incident.
Resource Management
(A case study)
In the event that the complexity or
significance of the incident grows to
such an extent that other government
departments or nations have an
interest and/or become involved, then:
The National Maritime Operations
Commander may choose for the NMOC
to assume strategic command and
control while utilising the team at the
initiating Centre to focus on specific
elements of the incident as appropriate
Traffic Reporting Schemes
To provide a consistent service to
mariners and avoid repeated passing
of Transit reports. Traffic Separation
Scheme reporting could be conducted
by a operations teams at any
location(s) operating on a rota to
cover
- Minch, Fair Isle, Pentland Firth,
Lands End, The Smalls, North
channel.
The Dover strait TSS will remain the
responsibility of the centre at Dover to
meet CNIS obligations
National Monitoring Services
Examples
A team of Officers on any given
day according to workload can
undertake the following services
in discharge of the UK’s
responsibilities:
1.Receipt of an alert in the event
of a banned ship entering UK
waters.
2.The requirement to monitor
Single Hull Tankers
3.Requirement for an alert when
vessels of interest to other
Government departments enter
UK waters.
