LETTER of
PROTEST
FREE WATER IN CARGO
VESSEL :
M/T .......... LOAD PORT : KALUNDBORG
VOY.NO :
3/01 STS WITH
M/T ISOLA MAGENTA
DATE : 23nd JUNE 2001
TO
: WHOM IT MAY CONSERN
Gentlemen,
On completion of loading at STS with M/T
ISOLA MAGENTA, we checked our loaded ship’s cargo tanks for free water. No free
water has been obtained. Maybe possible water are present, but not yet settled.
As the cargo tanks and pipelines were
empty and dry prior to loading, the above quantity of water must have
originated from your shore tanks and pipelines.
In the
course of the forthcoming voyage, it is
likely that further quantities will settle out and I therefore reserve the
right to carry out further water detection procedures in order to establish the
total quantity of water in the cargo.
On behalf of my Owners/Charterers and
Recievers, I note protest with you and hold you fully responsible for all the
consequences resulting from the existance of the water loaded with and in the
cargo.
Please acknowledge reciept of this
protest by signing in the space provided below.
Yours faithfully,
Master of M/T..........
ACKNOWLEDGED BY
