There have now been four court judgments in Singapore relating to the enforceability of a Dispute Adjudication Board's ("DAB") decision under the FIDIC Red Book form of contract. The latest judgment is PT Perusahaan Gas Negara (Persero) TBK v CRW Joint Operation, which was handed down on 27 May 2015. It now appears that the way should be clear for the contractor to enforce the DAB's decision but it has taken him nearly seven years to reach this point. What lessons can be drawn from this saga? In our ebulletin which can be accessed here, Mark Lloyd-Williams, Partner, Ann Levin, Partner, and David Nitek, Partner explore the details of the case and the salient take away points.
