Ship detained due to payment dispute

The "Neptun" was stuck in the port of Nantong due to a payment dispute. The owner Gudzon Shipping had a disagreement over contractual obligations with a shipyard in Nantong over the scope and cost of repairs. The Chinese side, although seemingly agreeing on the total payment amount, was recalculating the price of some minor activities again. They were not too expensive but they also should be agreed, so that both sides could be sure that the work was completed and requires payment. On Dec 14, 2018, the "Neptun" was moored at a bulk terminal on the Yangtze, downriver from Nantong.
