Oslo-headquartered freight, defence and demurrage (FD&D) mutual Nordisk Defence Club has seen a significant spike in work related to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

Nordisk said that its work is becoming “increasingly influenced” by sanctions and the issue of the so-called “dark fleet” that has emerged over the past year.

In response, Nordisk said it had built up its sanctions team that would continue to grow in 2023.
