Article Abstract:

The conflict in March and April 2003 occurred due to the level of enquiries that remained high with many regular clients continuing to support the yard, with no real drop in the number of vessels docked and showed that Bahrain was a safe place to visit. It was concluded that once the situation on Iraq was stabilized then the market would certainly pick-up and the result would be an increase in work for ASRY.
