ASBATANKVOY -- DISPORT -- CARGO -- CONTAMINATION -- SAMPLE -- LOADPORT -- TERMINAL -- Owner Award When the Vessel arrived at disport, the discharged cargo was found to be contaminated upon sampling. The Charterer subsequently claimed damages in light of the loadport samples being uncontaminated. However, the Owners refuted the loadport samples’ accuracy and argued that they were taken forty-nine days prior to loading and only from one of the two terminal tanks.
