Australia: Oceanlinx Goes Into Liquidation
Australia’s wave developer Oceanlinx has gone into liquidation, the local news site reported.
The reports say that this could affect the investors, causing them to lose about AUD 80 million.
Oceanlinx went bankrupt following an accident which occurred off the South Australian coast leaving the company financially crippled.
