“We are disappointed and had hoped the Government would prioritise job creation and the development of national expertise,” says CEO Gunvor Ulstein.

“Nonetheless, we acknowledge that other considerations beyond our control have been decisive. We respect that this has been a difficult decision. Our focus now must shift towards securing involvement in offset agreements related to more standardised vessels.”
