Gas Turbine Loss History

WELD is an industry loss database not an insurance database

Records ground-up loss of $1,000,000 or more at the time of

loss.

WELD contains over 10,000 incidents from past three

decades (1,400 power plant related)

100 specifically identified as originating from and impacting

gas turbines.

CONSTRUCTION/ERECTION “ALL RISKS” &

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY

Page 18: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 18

GENERAL FEATURES OF A CONSTRUCTION POLICY

Construction is unique in many ways

SOME OF THE FEATURES OF A “CAR/TPL” POLICY ARE:

It is multi-year without review or break

It is non-cancellable - except for on-payment of premium

It covers all types of onshore construction plus wet works if connected to land

(e.g. breakwaters and jetties / terminals)

Is an “All Risks” policy with the 4 main General Exclusions of

• War Risks and Government related risks

• Nuclear risks and radioactivity

• Normal Wear and Tear

• Terrorism

Specific exclusions regarding defects in design, workmanship and specification

(see latter)

Page 19: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 19

C/EAR AND TPL

PERIOD OF COVER

• Entire construction period including construction, installation, testing, commissioning, initial operations and maintenance/defects period

WHO IS COVERED?

• Project Company/Owner

• All Contractors and Sub-Contractors of every tier

• All Suppliers, Consultants and Engineers (manual activities on site only)

• Lenders (as applicable)

Page 20: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 20

C/EAR – DEFECTS COVERAGE

Design Coverage

• Loss or damage caused by defects of materials, workmanship, design, plan or specification

LEG 1/96

• Outright exclusion

LEG 2/96

• Excludes defective portion but covers consequences of defects

LEG 3/96

• Covers defective portion plus consequences of defects

Page 21: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 21

THIRD PARTY LIABILITY (TPL)

INSURING CLAUSE

Indemnifies the Insured against all sums which the Insured is legally liable to pay (including claimants costs and expenses) arising out of or in connection with the Insured Project”

INDEMNITY PROVIDED

• Subject to a maximum limit of indemnity per occurrence (or in all)

COVER INCLUDES

• Accidental death, personal or bodily injury to or illness of or disease contracted by any person

• Accidental loss of and/or damage to third party property

Page 22: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 22

ADVANCE LOSS OF PROFITS (ALOP)

& DELAY IN START-UP (DSU)

Page 23: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 23

INSURED PARTIES

WHO IS COVERED?

Those with a financial interest in the successful completion of the project, i.e. Project Owners and Lenders only

WHAT DOES ALOP/DSU COVER?

Financial loss actually sustained due to a delay or interruption in completion of the insured project (Indemnity)

Delay must be caused by physical loss or damage indemnified under the CAR/EAR policy e.g.

• Contract Works

• Suppliers or customers premises

• Surrounding existing property

Page 24: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 24

SELECTING THE INDEMNITY PERIOD

• The policy will be subject to an Indemnity Period of typically 12 / 24

or 36 months

Considerations:

• Procurement of replacement items (lead times and delivery times)

• The response time and mobilisation to initiate inspection of damage

• Investigation into the cause and agreement on the actions required

• Planning / authority approvals

• Repair / reconstruction times

• Testing/commissioning

Page 25: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 25

WHO BUYS ALOP/DSU

WHO’S RESPONSIBLE?

• Owners/Employers

• Concession Companies

• Lenders

CONTRACTOR’S ARE TYPICALLY NOT AN

INSURED PARTY UNDER THE ALOP/DSU

Page 26: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 26

MAKE UP OF THE SUM INSURED

GROSS PROFIT OR FIXED COSTS

Gross Profit = Turnover less variable expenses (i.e fuel costs if not subject to take or pay obligations)

OR

Fixed Costs only, identified costs such as debt service/wages/rentals and the like

Page 27: Doing Business in Myanmar

www.duanemorris.com 27
