Global maritime security intelligence
Analyst-led assessment of the global maritime security picture, across regions, chokepoints and the routes that connect them. You see a single current view of where threats sit and how they are developing, drawn from Orbital's approved intelligence rather than raw feeds. It gives owners, managers and charterers a common starting point for voyage, port and routing decisions.
Maritime Intelligence
Incident monitoring
Monitoring of current published maritime security incidents, each reviewed by analysts for operational relevance rather than listed in bulk. You see what has happened, where, and whether it bears on your vessels and planned voyages. It helps you act on the incidents that affect you and set aside those that do not.
Maritime Intelligence
Regional security assessments
Current, approved regional security assessments covering the environments your vessels operate in. You see each region's security picture and the factors behind it, kept current as conditions change. It supports voyage planning, port selection and risk reviews with a consistent regional baseline.
Maritime Intelligence
Port intelligence
Security-focused intelligence on ports and the environment around them. You see the relevant security context for a port and its approaches, so a call can be prepared properly rather than assessed on arrival. It supports port selection, pre-arrival preparation and briefing for masters and ship security officers.
Maritime Intelligence
Voyage risk
Voyage risk assessed as the combination of the threat along a planned route and the specific vessel's vulnerability to it, at a defined point in time. You see the threat, the vulnerability and the resulting voyage risk under Orbital's approved methodology, not a single blanket rating. It supports the decision to proceed, adjust or prepare the vessel before departure.
Maritime Intelligence
Vessel affiliation and sanctions exposure
Intelligence on a vessel's ownership, control and affiliations, together with screening for potential sanctions exposure. You see who owns, manages and controls a vessel and whether it carries direct designation or potential exposure, with designation kept distinct from association. It supports counterparty checks, chartering decisions and compliance reviews.
Maritime Intelligence
Operational support
Direct analyst support for operational decisions where security, shipping and global events intersect. You can bring a specific situation to Orbital and have it assessed against current intelligence, rather than working from general guidance. It supports time-sensitive decisions that fall outside a standard assessment.
Package
Planning a high-risk transit?
Voyage Support wraps a Voyage Risk Assessment, a Port Risk Assessment, vessel monitoring with alerts and naval coordination into one package for a single voyage.
Audiences
For underwriters and brokers
The same analyst-led intelligence, framed for marine and specialty underwriting: exposure, affiliation and sanctions context for risk selection and pricing.
Exposure context
Security and conflict exposure context for the vessels and voyages behind a risk. You see the relevant exposure in terms an underwriter can use, drawn from the same analyst-led intelligence used across Orbital. It supports risk selection and pricing with a consistent view of exposure.
Affiliation and sanctions context
Vessel affiliation and potential sanctions-exposure context for the entities involved in a risk. You see ownership, control and affiliation detail alongside any direct designation or potential exposure, with designation kept distinct from association. It supports account acceptance, renewal and compliance decisions.
Portfolio-relevant intelligence
Current maritime and conflict intelligence framed for underwriting decisions and portfolio reviews. You see the developments that bear on written risks, rather than a general news feed. It supports reviews, aggregation questions and renewal decisions across a book.
