Panama-flag register picks two security assessors
The Panama Maritime Authority, the Panamanian autonomous agency responsible for the obligations of Panama as a flag state, has selected the Universe Security group in London and Singapore Technologies, in Singapore, as 'recognized security organizations.'
The group, along with Phoenix Management Services Group, will assist in evaluating security plans for 6,200 ships in the Panama-flag register.
About 2,000 of the vessels are owned by Japanese shipowners, AMP said in a statement.
