A shipyard owned by Hanwha, a South Korean conglomerate, has halted fees associated with a vessel currently operating at a Philadelphia shipyard. The shipyard is planning to expand its facilities, a significant investment for the region. The halt in fees is reportedly due to ongoing discussions regarding the vessel’s operational needs. While the specific reason remains undisclosed, this action has raised concerns among U.S. maritime industry officials regarding potential disruptions to shipbuilding operations within the United States. The decision affects the shipyard’s expansion plans and is currently under review.
