Because of what it known as insurance coverage protection points, Havila Voyages has postponed the departure of Havila Capella from Bergen on Tuesday evening.
The corporate stated this example is a results of sanctions in opposition to the (Russian) leasing firm that has financed Havila Capella.
Havila Voyages has established contact with Norwegian authorities to get a clarification as quickly as potential, the corporate stated.
“It is a very unlucky state of affairs for all our passengers who had been wanting ahead to crusing from Bergen on Tuesday evening, and it is a state of affairs that’s outdoors our management,” stated CEO Bent Martini.
“We’ve been clear on our place and are actually working to refinance Havila Capella to interrupt all ties with sanctioned and Russian-owned firms. This implies, amongst different issues, that funds on the present leasing settlement might be positioned on a closed account in step with the sanctions rules.”
Martini stated he hopes the insurance coverage supplier and the authorities will share the view that Havila Capella is a Norwegian ship.
“Havila Voyages is a Norwegian firm, and we function Havila Capella. The ship sails with the Norwegian flag and satisfies all necessities within the Norwegian Maritime Act. We subsequently hope that this example might be resolved quickly and may sail once more as deliberate,” he stated.
