Fisheries Statistical Report Year: 2017 Semester 1, Year 2018

The Seychelles Fisheries Statistical Report is a comprehensive source of information for the commercial fishing industry, fisheries managers, policymakers and researchers. Since 2014 the report has presented annual updates of fisheries statistics for on a bi-annual basis. The report contains data on the volume of production from Seychelles artisanal, semi industrial, industrial longline and purse seine fishery by vessel type, species and geographical locations. Profiles of each fishery, summary of data collection and processing procedures are also provided. Information on recreational, sea cucumber, Lobster and sport fishery is not included in this current edition but will be included progressively in future editions. As a result, the publication gives only a partial estimate of the total volume of local fishery production. Readers should note that some figures presented in this bulletin may be different to previously published because these figures may have been revised following thorough verifications carried out on the data following database upgrading, new data received that were previously missing, revised EEZ shape file used or data validation using VMS data. Also some of the figures presented may be subject to revision (usually upwards) as more data become available. Since space is a limiting factor in some tables, flag country appearing in these tables is included based on their total catch. The remaining flags are classified under “OTHERS”. Flag countries with only one vessel are automatically placed under “OTHERS” to preserve the confidentiality of data pertaining to the vessel.
