After several years of close cooperation following the establishment of the Iraqi Supreme Maritime Authority (ISMA) by the Iraqi Parliament, JAK is honored to have been awarded a Long-Term Services Agreement (LTSA).
The agreement, signed on 9th of February, establishes an inspection and monitoring system for vessels entering and exiting Iraqi territorial waters. This Long-Term Services Agreement builds on JAK’s successful delivery of multidisciplinary maritime projects.
JAK will provide:
- Inspection of all foreign vessels entering Iraqi waters.
- Provision of Port State Control Inspectors.
- Tracking of deficiencies and compliance on the vessels.
- Monitoring of vessels while in territorial waters.
- Development, deployment, and maintenance of a software system to monitor vessel status.
- Provision, operation, and maintenance of vessels for operations at all ports and in all-weather conditions.
JAK swiftly deployed the first vessel and is thrilled to play a key role in bringing ISMA’s vision to life.
