Maritime resource compliance intelligence for fishing quotas, oil and gas licenses, waste carriers, and coastal hazards — delivered as a Model Context Protocol server your AI agent can call directly. This server connects Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client to 7 live government and open data sources, surfacing compliance violations, ecosystem risk scores, and sustainability assessments in seconds.

Built for environmental analysts, offshore compliance teams, and fisheries regulators who need structured, queryable maritime data inside their AI workflows. Eight specialized tools cover every dimension of maritime resource compliance: from individual quota utilization to portfolio-level sustainability indexing.

What data can you extract?

| Data Point | Source | Example |
|------------|--------|---------|
| 📋 Fishing quota allocations | FQA Register (UK) | Atlantic cod — 142 tonnes allocated, 89% utilized |
| 🛢 Oil and gas license blocks | NSTA (UK Continental Shelf) | License P2547, Block 21/25a, North Sea |
| ♻️ Waste carrier registrations | Environment Agency | Coastal Waste Solutions Ltd — Upper Tier, active |
| 🌩 Severe weather alerts | NOAA | Gale Warning, North Sea, active 2026-03-20 |
| 🌊 Coastal flood warnings | UK Flood Monitoring | Severity Level 2 — East Anglian coast |
| 🐟 Marine species occurrences | GBIF | Gadus morhua — 847 records, North Atlantic |
| 📈 Environmental indicators | World Bank | CO₂ emissions per capita — 5.8 tonnes (EN.ATM.CO2E.PC) |
| 🔗 Resource network edges | Derived | Quota–License resource_overlap, weight 0.5 |
| ⚠️ Environmental violations | Cross-referenced | Expired registration — high severity |
| 🧮 Sustainability index | Composite | 0.68 (marginal) — extraction balance 71% |
| 🌡 Ecosystem risk score | Composite | 0.42 (moderate) — biodiversity pressure 38% |
| 📊 Extraction trend | Temporal | Overall trend: increasing, intensity index 24.7 |

Why use Maritime Resource Compliance MCP Server?

Compliance teams in the maritime and energy sectors spend hours each week pulling data from the FQA Register, NSTA portal, Environment Agency database, NOAA alerts, and GBIF — then manually reconciling figures across spreadsheets. A single compliance snapshot for a North Sea operator can take a half-day to assemble from five separate government portals.

This server automates the entire process. One tool call fetches, cross-references, and scores data from all 7 sources simultaneously, returning structured JSON your AI agent can reason over immediately.

- Scheduling — run daily compliance checks or weekly sustainability reports on automatic intervals
- API access — trigger any of the 8 tools from Python, JavaScript, or any HTTP client via Apify's REST API
- Proxy rotation — underlying actor calls use Apify's proxy infrastructure to avoid rate limiting on government data sources
- Monitoring — configure Slack or email alerts when compliance scores fall below thresholds
- Integrations — connect results to Zapier, Make, Google Sheets, or internal BI dashboards via webhooks

Features

- 8 specialized MCP tools covering resource mapping, fishing compliance, environmental violations, extraction trends, ecosystem risk, coastal hazards, sustainability assessment, and comprehensive reporting
- 7 live data sources queried in parallel: FQA Register, NSTA Oil and Gas, Environment Agency Waste Carriers, NOAA Weather, UK Flood Monitoring, GBIF Biodiversity, and World Bank Indicators
- Fishing quota compliance engine flags over-allocation (utilizationRatio > 1.0) as violations and near-limit quotas (utilizationRatio > 0.85) as warnings across any region or species
- Environmental violation detection cross-references waste carrier registration status — revoked registrations trigger critical severity, expired registrations trigger high severity — against World Bank CO₂ indicator data
- Weighted ecosystem risk model with 4 factors: biodiversity pressure (35% weight), resource extraction intensity (30% weight), environmental stress (20% weight), and cumulative impact (15% weight)
- Sustainability index balances four dimensions — extraction balance, biodiversity health, environmental compliance, and hazard resilience — into a single 0–1 score with actionable recommendations
- Network graph construction builds nodes (quotas, licenses, carriers, weather events, flood warnings, species, indicators) and typed edges (resource_overlap, waste_from_extraction, hazard_correlation, biodiversity_pressure)
- Composite coastal hazard scoring combines NOAA weather alert severity with UK flood warning severity levels into a single weighted risk score
- Temporal extraction trend analysis groups oil/gas license and fishing quota data by year, calculates extraction intensity index (licenseCount × 10 + quotaVolume / 100), and compares first-half vs second-half averages to determine overall direction
- Fully parallel execution — generate_maritime_compliance_report runs all 7 sub-analyses concurrently via Promise.all, minimizing latency for full assessments
- Graceful error handling — individual actor failures return empty arrays rather than crashing the tool call, ensuring partial results are always returned
- Standby mode operation — runs persistently on the Apify platform with 128–512 MB memory, ready to serve tool calls without cold-start delays

Use cases for maritime resource compliance intelligence

Fisheries compliance monitoring

Quota managers and fisheries regulators need to know which species and vessels are approaching or exceeding allocation limits before enforcement action becomes necessary. The assess_fishing_quota_compliance tool fetches live FQA Register data, computes per-quota utilization ratios, and flags violations immediately. Analysts can filter by region or species and integrate results directly into regulatory reporting workflows.

Oil and gas environmental compliance

Offshore energy operators and environmental watchdog organizations track NSTA licensing activity to identify extraction intensity trends and assess whether North Sea block activity is increasing. The analyze_resource_extraction_trends tool groups license issuance by year and computes an extraction intensity index, making it easy to detect acceleration in leasing activity that may warrant regulatory review.

Waste carrier compliance auditing

Environmental compliance officers screening marine-adjacent waste carriers need to identify operators with revoked or expired registrations before contracting. The detect_environmental_violations tool cross-references Environment Agency waste carrier data against World Bank environmental indicators, flagging critical-severity violations for carriers operating outside their registration status.

Marine ecosystem health assessment

ESG teams and environmental consultancies preparing sustainability reports need an objective ecosystem risk score that combines extraction pressure with biodiversity data. The score_marine_ecosystem_risk tool draws on GBIF species counts, fishing and oil/gas license volumes, and NOAA severe weather events to produce a 0–1 risk score with factor-level attribution — ready for inclusion in ESG disclosures or regulatory submissions.

Coastal operations hazard planning

Port operators, offshore facility managers, and marine logistics teams need real-time visibility of active coastal hazards before committing vessels or crews. The track_coastal_hazards tool aggregates NOAA weather alerts and UK flood warnings into a unified hazard list with composite risk scoring, severity breakdown, and active-period timestamps.

Sustainability reporting and ESG disclosure

Companies with maritime supply chain exposure face growing requirements to demonstrate sustainable resource use. The assess_sustainable_resource_use tool produces a sustainability index across four scored dimensions with specific recommendations, providing defensible quantitative evidence for regulatory filings, investor reports, and public transparency disclosures.
