BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Volkswagen marine unit sued for rigging performance tests on ship engines

October 22, 2015 Reprints

Norway-based ship owner I.M. Skaugen SE has said that it is demanding compensation worth $50 million from MAN Diesel and Turbo SE, a marine unit of Volkswagen A.G., with respect to rigging performance tests of ship engines manufactured more than a decade ago, Reuters reported.

The Norwegian company alleged that the specifications of the six engines it purchased from MAN in 2002-03 were misleading. It is seeking compensation for higher fuel use than stated over the expected 30-year lifetimes of the engines.
