Nautilus Identifies Potential Delay to Vessel Build

Nautilus Minerals

announces that there may be a delay in the finalisation of funding for the vessel to be used in connection with its Solwara 1 Project and a potential consequential delay to the program for the vessel build. In turn, this may result in a delay to the commencement of operations at Solwara 1. Nautilus and its strategic partner, Harren & Partner, have been negotiating the terms of third party financing related to the production support vessel for its first development project, Solwara 1, in Papua New Guinea. The vessel is planned to be owned and operated by the joint venture company (Vessel JV) to be formed by the parties (see links section for full press release).
