  8. Quantity Claims & Disputes
    1. For bulk deliveries, delivery barges, wagons and vehicles must be checked by tank dipping to measure the contents and ensure full out-turn. Flow meters must be checked for seals, correct settings, calibration and general condition. All of these checks must be carried out before and after delivery of each consignment and each barge, wagon or vehicle tank load. The delivery must be supervised at all times and care must be taken to ensuring that all documentation is complete and accurate before signing and stamping. Any discrepancies must be recorded on the Physical Supplier’s delivery receipt. Unless these procedures are followed it is nearly always impossible for a claim to be substantiated. The Seller regrets, therefore, that it will be obliged to reject claims for short delivery where these receiving procedures are not followed.

    4. In the event of the Buyer having grounds to believe that the Product supplied does not accord with the relevant description in the Confirmation Fax or is defective, the Buyer shall immediately:
      • Take all reasonable steps to mitigate the consequences of having been supplied with possibly defective or incorrect Product:
      • Give notice with full details of the possibly defective or incorrect Product to the Seller together with the Vessel’s position, destination and ETA; the quantities and locations of all bunkers on board the Vessel, the rate and quantity of consumption since delivery and the location immediately prior to consumption of bunkers consumed; for each of the three preceding deliveries to the Vessel, the quantity, quality and specification of product supplied, the place and date of supply and the name of the supplier.
      • Inform the Seller of the whereabouts of the Buyer’s set of samples.
    5. It is a pre-condition of the Seller being prepared to consider any quality claim that at the time notice is given, the Buyer has retained its complete set of sealed samples and is prepared to have them analyzed by a reputable independent testing laboratory, approved by the Seller. In the event that the Buyer is unable or unwilling to produce its samples for analysis within 14 days of a request from the Seller to do so, the Seller may proceed to have the Physical Supplier’s samples analyzed and the results of such analysis shall be binding upon the parties hereto.
    6. If it is alleged that any equipment or machinery has been damaged by defective Product, all details must be given to the Seller at the earliest opportunity and the item must be preserved and made available for inspection on demand at any reasonable time or times to the Seller or its representatives.

    3. The buyer may not withhold the payment of any invoice or any amount due to the Seller by reason of any right of set-off or counterclaim which the Buyer may have or allege to have or for any reason whatsoever.

Except as otherwise stated under the terms of any quotation and agreed in writing by the Seller, interest on overdue invoices shall accrue from the date when payment becomes due from day to day until the date when payment is received in full at a rate of two percent (2%) per month (both before and after any judgement).
    5. If the Buyer fails to make any payment on the due date then without prejudice to any of the Seller’s other rights, the Seller shall be entitled to:
      • Suspend or cancel any or all orders or deliveries of Products to the Buyer, and/or

    3. The Seller reserves the right to cancel the supply agreement if the Vessel fails to present itself for supply for more than 72 hours from the nominated supply date and time.

    1. The Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer or be deemed to be in breach of the Contract by reason of any delay in performing or any failure to perform any of the Seller’s obligations in relation to the Contract, if the delay or failure was due to any cause beyond the Seller’s reasonable control.
