The PCG OCEA FPB 110 MKII-class patrol boat is a series of forty patrol boats to be built by OCEA of France for the Philippine Coast Guard based on the OCEA FPB 110 design.^[2] The contract includes 9-yr maintenance contract instead of the usual 2 years and dockside equipment for six PCG bases^[3]

The country’s maritime sector marked another milestone as French Ambassador to the Philippines Marie Fontanel and Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon, with Philippine Coast Guard Commandant Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan and Mr. Roland Joassard, Chief Executive Officer of leading French shipbuilder, OCEA S.A. signed the contract for the acquisition of 40 units of 35-meter Fast Patrol Craft (FPC) as part of the PCG Modernization Program.

The acquisition is in line with President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s directive to upgrade PCG’s maritime security and operational capabilities.

Supported by a government-to-government financing agreement under the Agreement on Financial and Development Cooperation (AFDC), the project will also reinforce the strong ties between the Philippines and France in the field of maritime safety and development. May 22, 2025. ^[4]

PCG Commandant Admiral Ronnie Gavan said the acquisition of the 40 fast patrol crafts is the largest single-purchase for the modernization of the Coast Guard, calling it a “game-changer.”

“It is the largest, so far, single-purchase in the modernization of the Philippine Coast Guard. It is a game-changer for us. It will enable the Philippine Coast Guard to have at least two patrol boats in every district, fast enough to reach edges of our socio-economic zone forms to enforce the laws,” he said.

Some of the vessels will be deployed to the West Philippine Sea (WPS) as part of the PCG’s “mix of capabilities” to address security threats in Philippine waters, Gavan said.

The vessels are expected to enhance the drive against smuggling, drug trafficking, piracy, illegal fishing, and other forms of maritime crime.

“All forms of maritime crimes because enforcement of laws require us to be there. So, we need boats. This will also be engaged in search and rescue, and environmental protection and surveillance operations,” Gavan said.^[5]

Based on their hull number prefix "FPB", they are officially classified as "fast patrol boats".
