The role of hydrography in any maritime nation cannot be over-emphasised as that is the foundation that creates the opportunity in the water and navigation in general. If your waters are not safe or are not deep enough for your vessel, you cannot practice shipping because shipping first and foremost is based on navigable water.
Without proper chatting of the water, we cannot start any business. So the first person that define anything in the maritime industry is the hydrographers, they tell you the part on the water that you have to pass. So it is prioritised. We do that because we do not have all the resources. I will tell you most of the waters leading into the ports are chatted and at any point in time it is advertised so there is a comfort for shipping from the hydrographic perspective.
So, all the waters in Nigeria fall under a particular sphere of influence. So, what I am talking about is the one under my area of influence, the port area. I know the port authority, the port areas are well chatted and the chats are available, the data is there to give comfort to shippers. The areas that are charted will attract investments as people are comfortable with the waters because it is navigable and everybody wants to go where they can close their eyes and sail through the waters.
