Fehn Schiffahrts of Germany has overturned an arbitration award against it after an organic cargo of wheat was inadvertently fumigated.
The company made an appeal at the UK high court in a case involving the 4,250-dwt MPP Fehn Heaven (built 1997, now Fehn Pollux) .
Charterer Romani had been awarded damages in December 2017, following a charter deal agreed in 2012 for the transport of 1,300 tonnes of sunflower seeds and 1,800 tonnes wheat from Ukraine to Rotterdam, a ruling said.
