Seatrium Limited stock slips in Singapore trade as oil jitters and Maersk vessel deadline loom

Singapore, Jan 14, 2026, 15:23 SGT — Regular session

Seatrium Limited (SGX:5E2) shares slipped 0.44% to S$2.28 by 3:18 p.m. in Singapore, down S$0.01 on the day. Roughly 7.6 million shares changed hands. Over the past year, the stock has ranged from S$1.62 to S$2.60.

The Straits Times Index has climbed roughly 2.1% year-to-date. OCBC’s head of equity research, Carmen Lee, told The Business Times that January’s market action often signals how confident investors feel about the bigger picture. Citi analyst Luis Hilado, also quoted in the report, said risks around Seatrium remain “contained” but cautioned that “risk perception” might keep pressure on the stock until fresh large orders come through. He noted oil prices could dip below $60 a barrel but pointed out that key client Petrobras can finance most projects at around $50. (The Business Times)

Seatrium is still under the spotlight following a legal battle with Denmark’s Maersk over a $475 million wind turbine installation vessel intended for a New York offshore project. The dispute was settled in December, Reuters reported, with Maersk agreeing to pay $360 million of the remaining balance. This includes an interest-bearing credit of roughly $250 million, which will be repaid from the vessel’s operating revenue. (Reuters)

The stock ended Tuesday at S$2.29, rising 2.23% for the session, with intraday moves ranging from S$2.24 to S$2.29, according to market data. (StockAnalysis)

Seatrium reported a net order book of S$16.6 billion as of Sept. 30, 2025, covering 24 projects scheduled for delivery through 2031, in its third-quarter update. “We delivered another strong quarter in 3Q2025,” CEO Chris Ong said.

The Maersk-linked vessel remains a headline risk since most payment is back-loaded. In a Nov. 29 exchange filing, Seatrium disclosed that 80% of the contract price is payable on delivery and emphasized that the financial fallout from the arbitration hinges heavily on the final decision.

TradingView’s earnings calendar shows the next report is set for Feb. 20. (TradingView)

Investors are also waiting on news about the wind turbine installation vessel, scheduled for delivery by Jan. 30, 2026, per industry outlet OffshoreWIND.biz. (Offshorewind)
