Partners Sally-Ann Underhill and Thor Maalouf discuss the law on the initial stages of a shipbuilding project, including how new decarbonization technologies impact the documentation of specifications and performance criteria, the main types of contracts used to document shipbuilding deals, and how to record changes to a shipbuilding deal once it is signed.

This is the first of three episodes on shipbuilding law. Please join us for parts 2 and 3, in which we will discuss refund guarantees and how new and innovative technologies can cause delays during construction, as well as the law on cancelling contracts and making warranty claims.
