It includes analysis and consequences of recent case law, including Classic Maritime Inc v Limbungan Makmur SDN BHD, Lion Diversified Holdings BHD and Seadrill Ghana Operations Ltd v Tullow Ghana Ltd. The title also sets out the statutory principles that apply. Whilst looking at these principles in a broad sense, it is also the first major work to relate them to, and address the issues brought about by, the COVID-19 pandemic. Written by leading experts Ben Symons and Joe Dalby SC from leading commercial set, 36 Commercial, it offers a comprehensive and authoritatively researched analysis of all issues related to force majeure and frustration. It is practical in its approach and it is essential reading for commercial practitioners and contract lawyers to ensure they leave no stone unturned when working on a matter involving either force majeure or frustration.
