Acquisition of a dry-cargo vessel of mixed (river-sea) navigation
Organization and support of the acquisition of the Volgo-Balt-210 ship (IMO 8230376).
Acquisition of a dry-cargo vessel of mixed (river-sea) navigation
In March 2018, the principal asked for help in support of the transaction on the acquisition of the Volgo-Balt 210. The complexity of the transaction was the fact that the company needed the seller to obtain shareholder approval for the transaction, the number of which exceeded 3,000 persons. Also, the transaction was made at the time when the new rules for registering ships entered into force, the practice of which was not formed at the time of execution of the contract.
The lawyers conducted a comprehensive audit of the seller’s company and the ship’s documents. Based on the results of the inspection, a contract of sale and purchase on the BIMCO pro forma was drawn up, the conclusion and execution of which, including the reception and transfer of the vessel, the representation of interests on registration of rights to the vessel, was accompanied by lawyers. Also, the company acted as an escrow agent to confirm the fulfillment of obligations by the parties to the transaction.
Due to the detailed preparation of a significant number of basic and additional documents submitted for state registration, the vessel was successfully registered for the new owner in a period significantly less than that established by the rules of registration of vessels in force since 2018.
Decision
Due to the detailed preparation of a significant number of basic and additional documents submitted for state registration, the vessel was successfully registered for the new owner in a period significantly less than that established by the rules of registration of vessels in force since 2018.

Successful obtaining permission for cabotage of the nineteen "China Communications Construction" vessels
"Rosmorrechflot" confirmed the right of the "China Communications Construction Company" to dredging in the waters of the Bolshoy Kamen Bay with nineteen vessels flying the flags of foreign countries - China, Luxembourg, Palau, Mauritius, Sierra Lyon.
Decision
The issue of the permit was preceded by three months of active legal work by Law office "Inmarine" attorneys, during which the legal examination of corporate and shipowners' documents was carried out. The vessels obtained the necessary certificates for the safety of navigation. It justified not only the legal acceptability and the vessels safety, but also the economic, technical necessity of attracting a foreign fleet to carry out dredging in cabotage. Corrective measures were also taken with regard to the basis work documents.
«Inmarine» St.Petersburg Law Offices attorneys showed additional expertise, which predetermined the success of the project, in terms of preparing motivated objections and rejecting proposals for performing the declared works received from Russian shipowners.
After studying the information and documents provided, the Federal authorities gave the go-ahead to the Chinese shipowner's vessels entering the Russian territorial waters of Bolshoy Kamen Bay, where, according to information sources, dredging works have already been launched.
For the Russian practice of implementation of marine projects, the involvement and collection of documentation at once on 19 vessels is a serious figure, however, this amount will allow the Navy to fully implement the dredging project in the Bay of Bolshoi Kamen.
