MAST and AMSA formalise partnership to increase international risk management portfolio
Leading maritime security company Maritime Asset Security Training (MAST) has today announced their partnership with Astbury Marine Services & Associates (AMSA), a specialist shipping and insurance response business.
The combination of front-line experience and industry knowledge place MAST and AMSA as leaders in their field.
The two companies will work together to provide an increased portfolio of risk management services to clients trading in difficult or complex environments. These include support following an insurance incident, ship arrest or delay and a prevention and response service in relation to Kidnap for Ransom.
MAST and AMSA have an intimate knowledge of Somalia from working on the ground for P&I Clubs, World Food Programme and a Somali regional government. Peter Astbury was previously lead advisor on negotiations in respect of four Somali hijack cases (and a retained advisor on eight others) and Gerry Northwood, COO of MAST, was formerly a Royal Navy counter piracy commander in the Indian Ocean. Furthermore their knowledge of the Gulf of Guinea is based upon a corporate presence in Nigeria and counter piracy support to commercial ships in the region since 2012.
Both firms were pioneers of counter piracy services in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Guinea, and a successful concept of front line mediation for ship owners, marine insurers and Flag states with sensitive or intractable disputes. The firms will operate out of offices in the UK, Singapore and Sri Lanka and clients will benefit from an extensive global network of working contacts.

Somali officials say at least 20 people have been killed in a massive roadside explosion that engulfed a passenger bus on the main highway linking Mogadishu to Afgoye, 30 kilometers west of the capital. A police officer at the scene, Abidkadir Mohamed, told the Reuters News Agency it was a remotely controlled bomb along the road that exploded. Deputy Chairman of Afgoye, Abdullahi Hassan, who went to the scene, said the blast destroyed the minibus. “We have a big tragedy here,” he told VOA. “Everyone is dead, you only see pieces of dead bodies, hands, legs.” He said it’s believed 21-23 people were traveling on the bus. “The blast hit the bus early Thursday morning,” Hassan said. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack so far but al-Shabab often carries out deadly attacks on the Somali government and African Union peacekeepers. The group is also known for targeting civilians and hotels. Source: Voice of America US Urged to Use ‘Soft Power’ in Somalia
