The world’s leading salvage companies are bidding for a project to remove the burnt-out wreck of a X-Press Feeders' containership off Sri Lanka.
The tender for the work on the 2,743-teu X-Press Pearl (built 2021) closed in recent days and bids are now being assessed. The plan is for salvage equipment to be mobilised to the site within the next two months, when the monsoon weather eases.
