Scottish Fleet Financial Performance_2007 Mid Year review
Fishing income in 2007 is expected to be between 10% - 15% up on 2006 for most fleet segments in this report. Forecast profits for all fleet segments expected to increase in 2007 compared to in 2005. Profits as a percentage of earnings likely to decrease in most fleet segments. Forecast models for seven key UK fleet segments now included in this report. Prices are significantly higher than 2006. Skippers in all segments expressed optimism. -
2008 Economic Survey of the UK Fishing Fleet - Short Report
The 2008 Economic Survey of the UK fishing fleet short report provides a summary of the financial and operational performance of the UK fishing fleet. This report summarises analysis of 33 segments of the UK fishing fleet, drawing on a combination of data collected by survey and data on landings and days at sea provided by the Marine Management Organisation (MMO), which covers every active vessel in the UK fleet. -
Options for improving fuel efficiency in the UK fishing fleet - key features
The key features leaflet contains a summary of the full report. Our intent in providing this summary is to clearly illustrate practical options to improve fuel efficiency to UK vessel owners and skippers. By providing this information we hope to encourage fuel efficient practices and provide guidance on evaluating investment in new equipment needed to adopt new practices, thereby enhancing the profitability of vessel business. -

Scottish Fleet Financial Performance_2005 Mid Year Review
Average gross earnings for North Sea and West of Scotland whitefish vessels are fairly stable compared to 2004. The marked increase in fuel costs, and high spend on leasing days at sea and quota have diminished average net profits for vessels in this segment compared to 2004. On average, over 24 metre whitefish vessels are expected to make a small loss or break- even, while under 24 metre vessels are expected to just cover their operating costs. Nephrops vessels struggled with poor weather early this year, and landings have varied by area, with North Sea landings up. Nephrops vessels also encountered higher fishing expenses than last year and therefore net profits are expected to be lower. -
Size-price dependency in the market for whitefish
Seafish analysed data on sales of cod and haddock at Peterhead auction between 2006 and 2015 to estimate how much fish size influenced price at auction. Further analysis was done to estimate how a lower average size of landed fish could impact fishing revenues. The study found strong evidence of size-dependent pricing for both species and estimated that if selectivity is not improved, fishermen operating whitefish vessels could earn £21,000 less in gross annual fishing income from cod and haddock landings, compared to pre-landing obligation fishing revenues. The study suggests that if selectivity is improved, fishermen could achieve a higher overall value for their landings than if they land the same proportion of small fish that they were catching before the landing obligation was implemented. -
Seafish Bioeconomic Modelling: Analysis of Choke Points and Problem Stocks for UK Fleet under the Landing Obligation, 2017-2019
A bioeconomic model has been developed by Seafish to support high quality analysis of the UK fishing industry. The model provides Seafish with an impact assessment tool to analyse the potential impact of policy measures on the UK fishing fleet, with a particular focus on the potential effect of the landing obligation. The purpose of this report is to present findings from the model developed by Seafish. Several simulations are presented in the report to evaluate the impacts of new policy on UK demersal fleets. -
2007 Economic Survey of the UK Fishing Fleet
The 2007 report on the economic performance of the UK fleet continues an annual series of analyses of fleet performance. This report presents detailed analysis of 36 segments of the UK fishing fleet, drawing on a combination of data collected by survey and data on landings and days at sea provided by the Marine Fisheries Agency (MFA), which covers every active vessel in the UK fleet. Every vessel active in 2007 has been allocated into one of these 36 segments. Refinements to the segmentation of under 10m vessels provides more useful average performance figures than in previous reports. -
FS 77. Industry Briefing Note. The Landing Obligation.
A key element of the reformed Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), effective 1 January 2014, is the progressive elimination of discards in EU fisheries through the introduction of the new landings obligation. The landing obligation is effectively a ban on discarding fish overboard. This briefing note explains what is meant by the landing obligation and the legislative framework, and the issues it is raising for the seafood industry. -
