INTRODUCTION

Lloyd's Register - Fairplay, the leading supplier of maritime information services, was formed in July 2001 through the merger of Lloyd's Register's Maritime Information Publishing Group and Fairplay Publications Limited.

With a staff of 170, exclusive access to the Lloyd's Register offices worldwide and a global network of agents and correspondents we have the ability to access and verify information globally. No other organisation can match these dedicated in-house resources.

Lloyd's Register - Fairplay is the only organisation able to provide comprehensive details of the world merchant fleet of 100 GT and above (over 91,000 ships).

The database contains details of over 200,000 ships which includes newbuildings, total losses and scrapped ships. In addition to maintaining the Lloyd's Register of Ships database, Lloyd's Register - Fairplay also maintains the largest database of maritime companies - a total of over 171,000 - a database with details of over 9,400 ports and terminals, information on the world order book (merchant ships of 100 GT and above on order and under construction in the world's shipyards), casualty data, fixtures, vessel detentions, photographs and an electronic news archive going back over eight years.

Underpinning the company's name is Fairplay Shipping Weekly, which celebrated 120 years of editorial independence in 2003. With its web news service and daily email news delivery, coupled with the monthly technical publication Fairplay Solutions and its Newbuildings supplement, the magazine has built a reputation for accurate reporting and hard-hitting comment on all sectors of commercial shipping.
