Now at the port of  Mukran

Dear Sir,

I,hereby have to reject your claim conerning aleged  discrepancy between  my  Bunkering Delivery Note and yours vessel sounding figures.

According  to my ullage report  signed on , by  your  Engineer on duty at  the beginning of bunker operation and after completed , you received the quantity and weight of  IFO 120  you have ordered. I would  to draw your attention to fact that my cargo tanks before commenced ware inspected  and ullaged by Your Engeener on duty, after completed bunker operation have been faund empty and this fact was confirmed by your Engineer .

Additionaly supplier’s  barge soundings are the only one binding results for the parties as stated in Supplier’s  General Terms & Conditions for Marine Fuels Purchasing and  Delivery  99.

In this circumstances I have to hold your Engineers on duty resposible for this amount in dispute.

Yours faithfully

Master of M/T Sleza
