A London High Court has dismissed a suit by Aiteo Eastern E&P Company Limited challenging a partial award in which the court held that it had jurisdiction to determine Shell’s claims against Aiteo in the long-running case involving both companies.
The judgement, dated November 17, was handed down by Justice Foxton remotely by circulation to the parties’ representatives by email.
The judge dismissed two applications brought forward by Aiteo under Section 67 of the Arbitration Act 1996 (the 1996 Act), according to court documents seen by PREMIUM TIMES.
