It looks like that the Indonesian partner of Sapoorji-Pallonji, Bumi Armada, promoted by a maverick Tamilian origin promoter, Shankar Krishnan, who faced a CBI arrest warrant for a money laundering case, is not in the pink of health.
8The company was recently able to get an unsecured loan refinanced but the advise given is for Bumi Armada to shed some of its assets to stay afloat.
8Even as Bumi Armada emerges as the controversial sole bidder for the KG-DWN-98/2 FPSO, in consortium with Shapoorji Pallonji, the Malaysian based company will have to shed some of its other FPSOs in order to able to meet the terms set by bankers
8This adds yet another twist to ONGC's controversial contracting process for the FPSO.
8"Bumi Armada's internal financial issues are relevant to that company and not to our consortium. Our bid has been found to be technically acceptable to ONGC, after considerable due diligence," an executive from the Sapoorji Pallonji-Bumi Armada consortium told this website. Details

Increases to global supply during the first quarter outstripped increases in demand, resulting in cargoes being dumped into northwest Europe’s spot gas markets.
8This pushed down prices at the region’s UK NBP and Dutch TTF gas hubs. The falls in Europe, in turn, pulled down spot LNG prices for East Asia, which no longer had to compete as hard against Europe for the few spot cargoes it did need.
8The spot price for Japan, China, South Korea and Taiwan plummeted from $8.950/MMBtu at the start of January to below $5/mmbtu as of now.
