Evergreen Marine has won a striking legal victory to overturn a liability ruling in the UK's first-ever Supreme Court collision ruling.
The Taiwanese operator had previously been found 80% responsible for an incident involving its 7,024-teu boxship Ever Smart (built 2006) and the 153,000-dwt tanker Alexandra 1 (built 1997) off Jebel Ali in 2015.
The ruling means the Admiralty Court will have to reapportion the blame for the clash.
