Drydocks World Singapore Pte and Labroy Shipbuilding & Engineering Pte have failed to pay their suppliers. Both companies belong to Drydocks World LLC, the ship repair branch of Dubai World. For the past year, the Dubai state-owned company has been trying to restructure US$ 24.9 billion of its debt.
In recent weeks, Drydocks’ two Singapore units refused to pay US$ 4.7 million for goods sold and delivered between May and December, this according to the complaints filed with the Singapore High Court by Beng Hui Marine Electrical Pte, Hoe Seng Huat Pte and Z-Power Automation Pte. Neither filed a defence to the lawsuits.
Drydocks in January said it was entering talks with its lenders to restructure a US$ 2 billion loan.
