Steffen Pedersen joins the Lloyds Maritime Law Newsletter (LMLN) Editorial Team

ArbDB Chambers Member, Steffen Pedersen, has joined the LMLN Editorial Team, as Co-Editor of the Arbitration Section of the LMLN, working with Andrea Skeoch and Professor Robert Merkin, who remains Co-Editor in respect of judicial case law.

The first newsletter under the Arbitration Co-Editorship of Steffen and Andrea was Issue 1218 published on 14 August 2026 and contained summaries of two important Court decisions on maritime issues, namely on the calculation of the daily hire rate by reference to the freight payable for LNG, rectification and common and unilateral mistake and safe port, liability for vessel damage during discharge. Another Newsletter was published even more recently and deals with an important Court decision on force majeure and whether timely notice of a force majeure event is a condition precedent.

ArbDB Chambers commented: "We are delighted that Steffen has joined and has already started working as part of the Lloyds Maritime Law Newsletter Editorial Team and we wish him every success in that role. This also reflects the depth of expertise amongst our Members, particularly in the maritime and related areas, such as energy and deep sea mining."
