Sea Trucks in Provisional Liquidation
Offshore contractor Sea Trucks has been placed into provisional liquidation by the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court in the High Court of Justice British Virgin Islands.
Chad Griffin of FTI Consulting LLP and Ian Morton of FTI Consulting (BVI) Limited have been appointed as joint provisional liquidators.
The appointment is only to the group holding company. The underlying operating/asset owning companies (the “Subsidiaries”) are not subject to insolvency proceedings.
The provisional liquidation of the company is said to have no impact on the operations of the Group.
The management team remain in control of operations and it is business as usual for the Group.
Chad Griffin, joint provisional liquidator of the Company, said: “The provisional liquidation will provide stability and court protection, to create a platform to maximise value.
We will be working closely with the Group’s directors and management team to understand the affairs of the company.”
Tom Ehret, executive chairman of the Group, stated: “The appointment of provisional liquidators has no impact on the Group’s operations; the management team remain at the helm and look forward to working with our loyal customers to continue to develop our successful trading relationships.
“Fundamentally, the Sea Trucks Group is and remains a strong and viable business, well positioned in its markets. We are excited about its prospects and will continue to service clients to the expected high standards.”
