WORKSHOP OVERVIEW

Sale and purchase law is a highly specialised branch of maritime law. Problems can arise out of the blue, very often in a tight window of a few days before the ship is due to be delivered and paid for. It is vital to get to grips with the problem immediately in order to deal with it effectively.

The Norwegian Saleform has long been the standard industry contract for the sale and purchase of second-hand cargo ships. It is used all over the world on a daily basis. But like all basic blueprints it has changed and evolved over the years to accommodate new problems and changing commercial practices. Now BIMCO is preparing a new ship sale agreement. It is expected to cover several additional issues, reflecting changing problems and needs.

This masterclass will give you a clear and concise picture of the problems and solutions which have occupied the shipping industry in recent years – and some of the problems which have now emerged in the age of COVID-19, sanctions and other global developments.
