Robert Bright QC, 7 King’s Bench Walk Chambers

ON May 11, 2016, the industry eyed the Supreme Court for judgment on the OW Bunker test case, The Res Cogitans.

Robert Bright QC triumphed in arguing this case for OWB Malta and ING Bank, against a spirited legal strategy from the vessel owners and their lawyers.

The repercussions of the case have been huge for the industry, with bunker contracts now sharply in focus. Bright’s punchy performance in Court provided Lloyd’s List  with some memorable quotes in our reporting of the case.
