Cargo insurers have taken legal action in New York to recover salvage costs

Tue Dec 09 13:13:06 CET 2025 Timsen

Cargo insurers have taken legal action in New York to recover salvage costs after an arbitration award. They were suing three major container liner operators in a US court in a battle over the salvage of the 'MSC Achimidis VIII' which had suffered engine trouble off Mexico in 2021 and was towed to port by Five Ocean Salvage. The lawsuit was targeting the MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company, AP Moller-Maersk and Zim with claims of contract breaches, unseaworthiness, negligence and indemnity. The insurers are seeking more than $2m in monetary damages over the engine problems.
