Transocean Drilling UK Ltd v Providence Resources plc (The Arctic III) [2016] EWCA Civ 372, [2016] All ER (D) 68 (Apr)

The Court of Appeal allowed the claimant’s appeal against the judge’s decision that the defendant was entitled to recover spread costs for a period of delay caused by the claimant’s breach of contract. The language of the exclusion clause in the contract in LOGIC form was clear and was apt to exclude liability for wasted costs in the form of the spread costs which the defendant sought to recover.
