One sample shall be provided to the surveyor and analysed, a second shall be given to the suppliers, and third shall be retained on board for independent joint testing, in the event of disputes about the quality of the bunkers supplied. In the event of dispute about the quality of the fuel the third sample left on board shall be jointly analysed at a mutually acceptable independent laboratory, and the results shall be binding on the parties The quantity of fuel shall be finally determined using the density determined in the sample analysed. Owners undertake to provide Charterers with a copy of each off specification analysis report, to enable Charterers to notify suppliers promptly in the event of a quality or quantity dispute.

Bunkers. Vessel to deliver with bunkers as on board, which expected to be about 668 mt IFO and about 38 mt MDO. Bunkers on redelivery to be about same quantities. Bunker prices both ends: USD 180.00 per metric ton IFO and USD 250.00 per metric ton MDO. Charterers’ option to bunker vessel prior delivery, provided not interfering with discharge operations.

Charterers are to provide the vessel with bunkers in accordance with ISO standard 8217:1996 RME25 and DMB grades, but if Charterers cannot supply bunkers within said specifications Charterers shall have the option to supply respectively RMF25 and DMA grades. In order to comply with the terms and conditions of the various bunker suppliers, the sample to govern quality shall be the sample drawn by the supplier and witnessed by the vessel’s Chief Engineer or surveyor appointed by the Owners. Analysis of said sample in accordance with the recognized ISO test methods at a mutually agreed reputable and dedicated laboratory shall be binding and conclusive for both parties. Quantity supplied shall be finally determined by sounding of the tanks of the delivering barge or by reading of meters at shore installation. If the bunker fuels supplied are proven to be unsuitable for burning in ship’s engines or auxiliary engines, Owners shall not be held responsible for any reduction in speed and/or increased consumption as per Charter Party. Owners and Charterers will work out a best possible solution to resolve if such proven unsuitable bunkers have already been supplied on board, failing which Owners have the right to order the vessel to xx-xxxxxx the unsuitable fuels remaining on board at Charterers’ time and expenses at a time and place to be mutually agreed between Owners and Charterers.
