Deductible Buy Down

A large vessel steers a course alongside a windfarm

In the offshore energy market and wind farm construction projects, we have seen more and more exposure being pushed down the contractual chain. In certain circumstances a contractor client must contractually assume exposure to pay for the deductible of its owner or operator counterparty.

This insurance allows a contractor client to buy that deductible down to an acceptable level. It provides a solution to a commercial challenge, not only helping the client in reviewing its contractual obligations, but also in competing to get tonnage to work.
