Floating production contractor Rubicon Offshore has taken legal action against Singaporean independent KrisEnergy.

The action relates to a charter agreement from October 2014 between Rubicon and KrisEnergy for the Rubicon Vantage floating production, storage and offloading vessel to be located on the Wassana oilfield in Thailand.

KrisEnergy said a Rubicon subsidiary had filed a Part 8 claim form in the High Court of Justice Business and Property Courts of England and Wales in relation to a guarantee made by KrisEnergy as guarantor to secure the performance of its obligations to Rubicon under the bareboat charter.
