11. Vessel's duties.
11.1. A vessel is obliged to receive or to deliver cargoes 24 hours a day including Sundays and holidays and to provide free of charge to NCSP steam, electric power, lighting, compressed air, winches, cranes, and other devices that are necessary for loading or discharging of cargoes.
11.2. Prior to commencement of cargo-handling a vessel is to inform NCSP about all vessel's structural peculiarities that could effect cargo-handling. NCSP is not liable for the damage to a vessel during cargo-handling if vessels have not taken appropriate measures to protect vessel's elements (ladders, tank tops, structure)
11.3. Receipt and delivery of cargoes take place alongside a vessel with indispensable preparation of mutually signed Tally Sheets of appropriate form. Moreover, each cargo "lift" and the total amount of loaded/discharged cargo should be confirmed by signatures of both parties.
Any amendments to Tally Sheet are permitted only if agreed by both parties and confirmed respectively with signatures of tallyman of NCSP and the vessel in question. Tallysheets with amendments that have not been agreed or made solely by the vessel are not valid.
If a vessel does not provide own tallymen, NCSP tallymen's counts shall be binding. In this case, cargo documents that were made according to counts of NCSP are to be signed by the master without remarks, regardless whether the master was provided with information about loaded/discharged cargoes or not. Vessels have to ensure delivery of cargoes separately according to Bills of Lading. Additional expenses resulting from discharging of mixed consignments against Bills of Lading are for vessel's account.
11.4. During interruptions in loading or discharging of any cargo as well as in case
of bad weather a vessel closes and opens holds. If for these purposes a vessel uses shore cranes - all expenses are for vessel's account.
11.5. The cost for idle time of labour due to vessel's fault (e.g., break-down of vessel's cargo gears, the lack of steam, lighting, interruption in handling or decline in handling rates due to mixture of cargo lots or at the request or through fault of vessel's administration, etc.) will be charged according to prevailing NCSP rates. Besides, the time lost for cargo operations due to these reasons is excluded from laytime.
11.6. The first shifting of a vessel pertaining to her loading/discharging and her
service is carried out for vessel's account in all cases.
In other cases shifting are for the account of the party who ordered shifting.
NCSP informs the vessel about forthcoming mooring, shifting, unmooring two hours before the commencement if such operations should be performed in day-time (from 08.00 tilt 17.00), and until 15.00 o'clock, if such operations shall be performed in the evening or nighttime (between 17.00 and 08.00 hours).
11.7. Any vessel is obliged to leave a berth on demand of NCSP. Shipowners who failed to comply with such demand bear full financial responsibility for any loss incurred for parties involved.
