Huntsman, the contract between DfT and Odyssey expired Sep 2015
Odyssey is alleging that the silver was salvaged from May-September of 2015 and then wet stored nearby until 2017 when it was raised and delivered to the ROW. Odyssey had the salvage contract until Sept 30 2015. They are not alleging that the Dft had a contract with another Salvor but they are suing the Dft to try and find out the other salvors name. They allege that the Salvor used the same vessel and crew, the Swire Seabed Explorer, to complete this salvage. Swire was under a non disclosure agreement at the time.
