CPV - Ships Life Extension Programme

Border Force Maritime Command (BFMC) is the UK's only national maritime law enforcement body. Its fleet of six Coastal Patrol Vessels play an essential role in delivering the Government's crime reduction and border protection objectives, alongside a range of wider maritime security goals. The current fleet of CPVs is at or nearing the end of their design life. This SLEP activity is applicable for up to six (6) CPVs for a life extension programme which will allow the continued services of the CPVs while mitigating risk and minimising loss of operational availability.
