Common use of GENERAL AVERAGE Clause in Contracts

GENERAL AVERAGE. A. In addition to any other rights Charterer may have, and if requested by Charterer, Owners will release one or more cargoes to Charterer for transshipment from a port of refuge by and at the expense of Charterer in exchange for a nonseparation of interest agreement, general average bond, and a general average undertaking from cargo underwriters in the customary forms. Charterer’s transshipment expenses, up to the general average expenses saved, are to be treated like the general average expenses saved, as if those expenses had actually been incurred and paid for by Charterer. If a subcharter is involved and freight is at risk, subcharterer shall be credited for the vessel’s daily manning, bunkers, insurance costs as well as port expenses saved for any part of the voyage not required to be made by reason of transshipment. Bills of lading for such transshipped cargoes are deemed to be accomplished on completion of transfer to the transshipping vessel, and port of refuge where transfer is made shall be treated as a discharge port. B. Any amounts allowable in general average for wages, provisions and stores shall be credited to Charterer insofar as such amounts are in respect of a period when the vessel is on hire.
