Jasper Investments accommodation vessel sale falls through

Jasper Investments accommodation vessel sale falls through
The sale of the accommodation vessel Jasper Cosmopolitan in Yiulan Shipyard has been cancelled after the buyer failed to meet conditions of the agreement.

Jasper Investments announced on 3 November it was selling converted accommodation semi-submersible vessel at Yiulian Shipyard for $75.6m to Alyar Offshore after the Singapore-listed company failed to take delivery due to insufficient funds.

However, since the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) the buyer has neither paid the deposit or inspected the vessel. The failure to pay a deposit had rendered the MOA null and void and the sale is not proceeding Jasper Investments said.
