Manifold Times previously reported on Singapore-based oil-and-chemical waste management player NSL OilChem Waste Management Pte Ltd (NOWM), the environmental services arm of SGX-listed NSL Ltd, filing for a winding up application against Prosper Marine on 24 November 2020. 

Later, Manifold Times reported the approval of the application. NOWM’s move to windup Prosper Marine came after a High Court Judge decision where it won claims in three suits (Suit 1062, Suit 853 and Suit 1048) against the defendant.

Suit 1062 relates to invoices issued by NOWM to Prosper Marine between June 2015 and October 2016 under the 2014 Contracts worth $6,429,105.74 before interest and $7,629,613.70 with interest (calculated up to 23 February 2017).

Suit 853 revolves around the sole issue whether the Prosper Directors are liable in their personal capacity for NOWM’s outstanding invoices. The Judge found the Prosper Directors jointly and severally liable for NOWM’s unpaid invoices, including 18% late payment interest. 

Suit 1048 concerns NOWM’s claim of $261,290.32 for its outstanding charter hire for the period between 27 May and 16 September 2016 as well as damages in respect of Prosper Marine’s breaches of the Charterparty with interest.

Hengli Petrochemical’s ex-Singapore trading arm faces winding up application

In April, China’s Hengli Group reportedly reorganised the shareholding structure of its Singapore-based trading arm shortly after the United States imposed sanctions on its refinery unit.

An application for the winding up of Hengli Petrochemical International Pte Ltd, the former Singapore trading arm of Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refinery, is scheduled to be heard at 10am on 4 September, according to a Monday (24 August) notice on the Government Gazette.

The application was filed by Dalian Hengli New Energy Sales Co Ltd, a creditor of the company, on 14 August and will be heard at the High Court of Singapore.

In May, it was reported that Hengli Petrochemical International dismissed some employees, with some workers being laid off while others were offered positions in other entities. 

In April, China’s Hengli Group reportedly reorganised the shareholding structure of its Singapore-based trading arm shortly after the United States imposed sanctions on its refinery unit.

On 24 April, US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned China-based independent teapot refinery Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refinery Co Ltd, a unit of Hengli Petrochemical, saying it purchased billions of dollars’ worth of Iranian oil.

The company shifted most of the ownership of Hengli Petrochemical International to Dalian Changxing International Trade, a firm backed by a local Chinese government entity.

The Singapore unit was last reported to be 95% owned by this new shareholder, while Hengli Petrochemical’s Dalian refinery retains a 5% stake. Previously, the refinery had full ownership of the Singapore entity.

It was reported that Hengli Petrochemical denied it has engaged in any trade with Iran. 

The notice stated that any creditor or contributory of the company desiring to support or oppose the making of an order on the winding up application may appear at the time of hearing by himself or his counsel for that purpose.

A copy of the winding up application will be furnished to any creditor or contributory of the company requiring the copy of the winding up application by the undersigned on payment of the regulated charge for the same.

The Applicant’s address is No. 551, Pincui Road, Changxing Island Economic Zone, Dalian Liaoning Province, China.

The Applicant’s solicitors are M/S ASIALEGAL LLC of 1 Coleman Street, #07-02A, The Adelphi, Singapore 179803.
