Shipbuilding & Construction

Representing Yards, Buyers & Contractors At All Stages Of The Construction Project

We have extensive experience of the SAJ, AWES, NEWBUILDCON and REPAIRCON forms as well as many derivatives, relating to the construction of all types of vessels and offshore rigs. We also advise contractors under the FIDIC and LOGIC suite of contracts relating to onshore and offshore construction projects.

We have represented yards, buyers and contractors in numerous complex engineering and construction disputes. Our team has extensive experience of the issues that arise during the building process, such as variation orders, extensions of time, delays, prolongation costs, force majeure and issues relating to termination and refund guarantees, among many others. We have the specialist knowledge and experience as to how best to handle such matters so as to achieve the desired outcome.

We also closely advise clients on the drafting and negotiation of shipbuilding and construction contracts running through all stages of the project up to delivery/completion.
