Seatrium end-customer gets reprieve after judge rejects Trump&rsquo s wind farm ban
Empire Wind developer Equinor says it would lose over US$1 billion in contracts if the project does not restart soon
 
[WASHINGTON] US President Donald Trump&rsquo s attempts to torpedo offshore wind farms suffered a second blow this week, when a federal judge ruled on Friday (Jan 16) that construction for the US$5 billion Empire Wind project off Long Island in New York could resume.
 
In December, a US federal agency issued stop-work orders to five major wind projects, including the Empire Wind 1 project, on the grounds of &ldquo national security concerns&rdquo .
 
Singapore&rsquo s Seatrium is expected to deliver to Maersk a US$475 million wind vessel, which is ultimately headed for the Empire Wind project.
 
When news broke of the ban, Seatrium told The Business Times in December that it was monitoring the situation. The vessel contract was in the centre of an earlier dispute between Seatrium and Maersk, which has since been resolved. The company added that the settlement is on track.
 
In response to BT, Seatrium on Friday said there are no changes to the terms of the resolution as announced on Dec 22 last year.
 
&ldquo The group remains focused on delivering the vessel to the customer by Feb 28,&rdquo added a spokesperson.
 
In the latest development, Judge Carl Nichols of the US District Court in Washington, DC said that the Interior Department&rsquo s order to stop work on Empire Wind would likely cause irreparable harm. The government last month halted construction on that project and four others along the East Coast, citing unspecified national security concerns.
 
Attorneys for Empire Wind told the court that the project, which is about 60 per cent complete, would face &ldquo existential risk&rdquo if it was further delayed. 
 
Equinor, the Norwegian energy giant developing the wind farm, said that if construction did not restart in the coming days, it would lose more than US$1 billion in contracts and that a specialised ship needed for construction would set sail for another project.
 
&ldquo Empire Wind has demonstrated that it will suffer irreparable harm,&rdquo said Nichols, who was nominated to the bench by Trump.
 
He said that the company was likely to succeed in some of its arguments, including the assertion that the Trump administration did not follow the law when it halted work on the wind farm. 
 
The Justice Department offered &ldquo no substantive proof&rdquo that it gave Empire Wind any notice or opportunity to be heard before it stopped work on the project, as the law requires, Nichols said.
 
It was the second time this week that a judge has thwarted the Trump administration&rsquo s effort to stop the five projects being built by different companies along the East Coast. On Monday, Judge Royce Lamberth ruled in the same court that Revolution Wind, a 65-turbine project off Rhode Island and Connecticut, could continue construction while legal proceedings move forward.
 
The Interior Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
 
Equinor said the company would &ldquo now focus on safely restarting construction activities&rdquo on Empire Wind. It also said it would try to work with the Trump administration &ldquo to ensure the safe, secure and responsible execution&rdquo of its operations.
 
Groups opposed to offshore wind urged the Interior Department to appeal the decision.
 
Days before Christmas, the Trump administration ordered companies to halt work on Empire Wind and Revolution Wind, as well as Sunrise Wind off the coast of New York, Vineyard Wind 1 off Massachusetts and Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind off Virginia.
 
The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, part of the Interior Department, said at the time that construction must stop for at least 90 days while the administration reviewed classified security issues.
 
The wind farms are collectively worth US$25 billion and are expected to power more than 2.5 million buildings and create thousands of jobs, said Turn Forward, an offshore wind advocacy group. 
 
In addition to the developers of the projects, several states have sued to block the administration order and restart construction.
 
Trump has repeatedly said that he would block new wind projects, saying without evidence that &ldquo they ruin the environment they kill the birds, they kill the whales&rdquo .
 
During his first month in office, Trump issued an executive order temporarily halting all leases and permits for wind energy on federal land and in US waters, which he said &ldquo may lead to grave harm&rdquo . In December, a federal judge struck down that order, calling it &ldquo arbitrary and capricious&rdquo .
 
In April, the Trump administration broadened its focus beyond new offshore wind projects and turned its attention to wind farms that had already been granted permits by the Biden administration and were in various stages of construction. 
 
The Interior Department issued a stop-work order for Empire Wind, but it was reversed after weeks of negotiations with Governor Kathy Hochul of New York, a Democrat. Then in August, the agency ordered Revolution Wind to halt construction. In September, Judge Lamberth reversed that decision.
 
&ldquo I am sick and tired of having to go to court time and time again to stop these decisions,&rdquo Hochul said on Thursday. &ldquo They are designed to do nothing other than hurt workers, hurt our economy and hurt our energy future.&rdquo
 
All five wind projects had gone through years of environmental reviews before getting permits, which allowed the developers to secure financing, sign contracts to sell electricity to states and utilities, hire workers, lease equipment and begin construction. 
 
The five wind farms were pioneers in what president Joe Biden had hoped would be a new era of offshore wind power in the United States to phase out fossil fuels and tackle climate change.
 
Supporters of wind power said that they believed the Trump administration&rsquo s current claims of national security concerns were a pretext for stopping an energy source that Trump dislikes.
 
Hochul on Monday said that her response to the Trump administration&rsquo s order was: &ldquo I am the governor of New York. If there is a national security threat off the coast of New York, you need to tell me what it is, and I need a briefing right now.&rdquo She added: &ldquo Lo and behold, they had no answer.&rdquo
 
On Wednesday, Ann Navaro, an attorney for Empire Wind, told Nichols that the Trump administration had not shared any details about why it now considers offshore wind a security threat. 
 
Equinor and two other developers, Orsted and Dominion, have asked the Trump administration to give classified briefings to representatives who hold national security clearances. But to date, the Pentagon has not granted these requests, the companies said in legal filings.
 
Vineyard Wind announced on Thursday that it, too, is seeking a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction challenging the Trump administration. A hearing date has not yet been set by the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts.
 
Sunrise Wind and the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project also have similar cases pending against the Trump administration. The US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia will hear the Virginia case on Friday.

Seatrium (5E2): Empire Wind Court Victory - What It Means For Your InvestmentThe 60-Second VersionGood news: A U.S. court just ruled that the Empire Wind offshore wind project can resume work despite Trump' s freeze order. This is the project that Seatrium' s US$475 million vessel is being built for. Better news: Seatrium gets paid when the vessel is delivered in late February 2026&mdash regardless of whether the project actually proceeds. The court ruling just removed a huge risk. Current stock price: SGD $2.24 Analyst target: SGD $2.67 (19% upside) Should you buy?  Yes, if you' re comfortable with short-term volatility over the next 6 weeks. What Actually Happened (In Plain English)Seatrium is building a specialized ship (WTIV&mdash Wind Turbine Installation Vessel) for a Danish company (Maersk), which will use it to install giant offshore wind turbines for Equinor off New York' s coast. The Timeline:
Why The Stock Dropped 2.18% On Good News?You might be confused&mdash the court ruled in favor of the wind project, so why did Seatrium' s stock go DOWN on January 16? Answer: The market is still nervous. Here' s why:
But here' s the thing: The court ruling is actually  very positive  for Seatrium. The market just hasn' t fully priced it in yet. What Happens Next Week?Next 1-2 weeks: Expect the stock to bounce around (up and down 2-3% at a time). Watch for:
Late February: Ship delivery. This is the KEY date. When Seatrium receives the US$360 million payment, the stock should rally toward SGD $2.45-2.55. March-April onwards: If the ship is successfully utilized and future offshore wind projects get greenlit, Seatrium could hit SGD $2.80-3.00 as the company returns to profitability. Should You Buy Now?
Stop-loss: If the stock falls below SGD $2.10, something has materially changed (e.g., Trump' s appeal succeeded). Exit. The Three Key Risks (What Could Go Wrong?)
Bottom line on risks: The February payment is protected. Risks are mostly about future business and market sentiment, not this immediate contract. Why Seatrium Gets Paid RegardlessThis is critical to understand: Seatrium doesn' t get paid by Equinor or Maersk for using the ship. Instead:
Translation: Even if the Empire Wind project completely falls apart, Seatrium can sell the ship to another company for ~US$250M+ and cover its costs. The cash is protected. Analyst Views (From Major Banks)
Translation: All the major Singapore banks think this stock is undervalued right now. The court ruling validates their bullishness. Bottom Line For ShareJunction Members✅   Buy now?  Yes, if you can hold for 6+ weeks without panic-selling ✅   Size: Consider 50-75% of intended position add more if stock drops to SGD $2.15 ✅   Target: SGD $2.45-2.55 in late Feb (small win), SGD $2.80-3.00 in 6 months (bigger win) ✅   Timeframe: Don' t expect immediate gains Feb 28 delivery is the catalyst ✅   Watch out for: Any Trump appeal news (bearish) or new offshore wind court victories (bullish) Disclaimer: Not financial advice. Do your own due diligence. Past performance &ne future results. .

Depending on how you treat stock trading, you will have a different conclusion on the drop today. If you take it as MBS casino, then it is a loss to the short term holder.
However, if you are truly an investor with mid to long term view, then this is just a blip and an opportunity to accumulate for gains in the near future. There is really no loss to anyone as this is part and parcel of being in the stock market and doing regular trades.

The sell down will only be for one day usually when analysts make such calls. By Monday it will start going up again.

Take analyst call with a pinch of salt, probably having hedge funds shorting the stock. It never got to $2.57 when they are promoting the stock so why $1.85. Some other bullish brokers are calling $2.9 - $3.05 but the stock is also not trading at those levels. Ultimately, lets see the upcoming earnings and guidance for 2026. | |||||||||||||||||||
