Abstract

Inventory of shipping containers lost at sea (both declared and POLREPs).

The Cedre continually records all the events at sea of which it is informed, and analyses the POLREP observation reports (maritime monitoring from all CROSS, navy and customs installations). The programme does not include active searching. Monitoring is therefore incomplete as it relates to past evens and pollution reports (POLREPS).

Purpose

- Permanent monitoring of events at sea in French waters.

- Response to the problem of containers lost at sea by ships passing through and near the Bay of Biscay
