Description
With the fall in the oil price and the uncertainties of the shipping markets in recent years, we have seen hundreds of offshore supply vessels under construction abandoned in the Asian shipbuilding nations. How are the disputes under the shipbuilding contracts being resolved? What is the status of the shipbuilders themselves? And how does this sit with the high levels of new orders we are seeing among other vessel types?
