THE COURT DECLARES THAT:
1. Chevron Australia Pty Ltd is the owner of 10/64ths interest in the ship "Cossack Pioneer" formerly owned and shown on the Australian Register of Ships as being owned by Chevron Asiatic Limited. 2. Chevron Australia Pty Ltd is entitled to be entered on the Australian Register of Ships as the owner of 10/64ths interest in the ship "Cossack Pioneer" Official Number 854283. 3. The Australian Register of Ships presently wrongly records Chevron Asiatic Limited as the current owner of 10/64ths interest in the ship "Cossack Pioneer" Official Number 854283 by reason of the omission of Chevron Australia Pty Ltd as owner of 10/64ths interest in the ship "Cossack Pioneer" Official Number 854283, such omission and error not being due to any error or decision of the Registrar or one of her officers.
