Force Majeure Clauses. In The Marine Star,58 the contract required the seller required to nominate the vessel. The seller nominated The Marine Star. Later that day he cancelled nomination but failed to renominate a substitute vessel. There was a force majeure clause in the c.i.f contract which provided that there would be no liability for any breach of contract due to an event beyond the sellerʹs control. The seller could not find a substitute vessel or cargo. The court held that the force majeure applied regarding the duty to nominate a vessel. However, substitution was a right not a duty and so was not covered by the clause. The problem resulted from the seller making a commercial choice to use the original nominated vessel and cargo to satisfy another contract. It would not have been impossible to fulfil the contract if the seller has so wished. The seller’s appeal,59 was refused. The plaintiff was able to receive damages for loss of profit, compensation paid to the next buyer and costs.. The plaintiff had sold the cargo on to Coastal Aruba. Coastal Aruba had arranged a substitute cargo and claimed compensation for breach of contract from the plaintiff. The plaintiff was able to recover the compensation paid to Coastal Aruba. Similarly, a Force majeure clause provided in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇,60 that there would be no liability if a breach of contract was due to causes beyond the sellerʹs control. The seller could have bought a cargo afloat and so avoided an export ban. Force majeure only applied if goods could not be shipped or purchased afloat within the contract period and not to a situation where a particular profitable source of cargo is not obtainable.
