Sources indicated on 21 October 2026 that an online public auction for the platform supply vessel Bourbon Liberty 161, offered together with her bareboat charter, will be held on the Shipbid website on 19 November 2026 between 16:00 and 16:30, the announcement saying the sale is being conducted on behalf of the Seller by an appointed Bidding Company.
The notice published by reports identifies the auction target as the PSV Bourbon Liberty 161 with her bareboat charter and sets out that the Bidding Company, acting on the Seller's instruction, will run the public online auction on the Shipbid platform; the published item indicated further particulars in the original announcement.
The announcement names the platform and the half hour window for bidding but does not supply additional technical particulars in the summary released by reports; interested parties are referred to the full notice for the complete set of particulars and any sale conditions accompanying the offer.
Auction schedule and organiser
The auction is scheduled to take place on 19 November 2026, with bidding open on Shipbid from 16:00 to 16:30 on that date, described in the announcement as "Auction Day"; the Bidding Company was named as the entity entrusted by the Seller to conduct the event.
The published notice therefore records the date, the platform and the narrow bidding window, and identifies the arrangement as an online public auction, leaving the detailed terms and any registration or documentation requirements to the full listing and the formal sale documentation.
Vessel offered with bareboat charter
The sale specifically covers the vessel Bourbon Liberty 161 together with her bareboat charter, a detail highlighted in the announcement; the summary in reports referenced the particulars without reproducing them in full.
The combination of the ship plus charter formed the auction target described in the bidding announcement, as presented by the Bidding Company acting for the Seller in the published notice.
The announcement, dated 21 October 2026, provided the essential timetable and the platform for the disposal of the vessel and charter but did not expand on commercial or technical details in the summary published on reports; the full particulars were indicated to be contained in the original listing on Shipbid.
