PACIFIC Richfield Marine Pte Ltd has denied that its vessels are being offered for distressed sales as indicated in a report released over the weekend. It also pointed out that its oustanding bank debt was just over US$100 million, not under US$400 million as suggested.
Still, the marine service provider confirmed that it was selling vessels - as much as half its offshore support fleet - to pare debt and expenditure and tide over the market downturn.
