Smyril engine replacement worth 74 million kroner was never tendered

The Faroese state treasury will pay 74.4 million kroner over the coming years to replace the four main engines on the vessel Smyril, but the work was never put out to tender, KVF reports.

Aside from the shipyard MEST, which was politically selected for the job, no other supplier in the Faroese shipbuilding industry was asked to take part.
