In one more indication of difficult times in the North Sea OSV market, Norway’s Havila Shipping ASA reports that Shell UK Limited has actually redelivered the PSV Havila Crusader early.
Havila claims that the vessel was hired from January 18, 2020, for a duration of 2 wells company which the celebrations settled on an approximated charter duration of one year.
“The parties have different views on the obligation of Shell UK Limited in a
charter party based on two wells,” claims Havila, including that it “will consider which steps to take towards Shell UK Limited as a result of the early redelivery.”
Delivered in 2010 by Norway’s Helles øy Shipyard, the 85 meters by 25 meters Havila Crusader will certainly currently be disabled, waiting for enhanced market problems.
