  • (The “Zagora”) QBD (Comm Ct) [2016] EWHC 3212
    Oldendorff GmbH & Co KG -v- Sea Powerful II Special Maritime Enterprises and Others (The “Zagora”) QBD (Comm Ct) [2016] EWHC 3212 In circumstances where original bills of lading are not available at the discharge port, it is still common commercial practice for the cargo to be discharged to the receiver against a letter of indemnity (“LOI”) conditional on delivery of the cargo to the receiver named in the LOI. The matter can be more complex where agents are involved within a chain of LOIs. The English High Court recently considered an action pertaining to a chain of LOIs where the claimants argued that the LOI was not enforceable as the cargo was not delivered to the nominated receiver. The question that the Court had to consider was whether in the above circumstances the party that did in fact take delivery of the cargo from the ship did so as agent on behalf of Owners or on behalf of the party identified in the LOI to take delivery. Facts The matter concerned a cargo of iron ore carried on board the M/V “ZAGORA” on a voyage from Koolan Island in Western Australia to Lanshan in China. SCIT Trading Ltd (“SCIT Trading”) agreed to sell 70,000 mt of iron ore on CFR terms to Xiamen C & D Minerals Co Ltd (“Xiamen”). Clause 9 of the sale contract provided that the agent at the discharge port be appointed by the buyer, Xiamen. Xiamen subsequently agreed to sell the cargo to an associated company, Cheongfuli Company Ltd, who in turn agreed to sell the cargo to Shanxi Haixin International Iron and Steel Co.

    Journal of Shipping and Ocean Engineering 6 (2016) 191-205 D doi 10.17265/2159-5879/2016.04.001 DAVID PUBLISHING Cargo Delivery without Presentation of the Bill of Lading in Chinese Maritime Law and Practice Vehbi S. Ataergin Dean Professor of Law School at Near East University Abstract: This chapter examines the Chinese practice of delivery of the cargo without presentation of the bill of lading and the law and regulations governing that practice, and in the gaps left by laws and regulations, the approach established by the legal authorities and maritime courts. The necessities and causes for this risky action and possible suggestions will be considered, as will the approach of statute and judiciary. Potential and desirable reform will be discussed in light of the Rotterdam Rules. It is concluded that in order to facilitate cargo delivery, there would be a need to provide detailed legal guidance applicable to the many situations where the requisite documentation has failed to materialise. Key words: Maritime law, international trade law, Chinese maritime law, cargo delivery, bill of lading. 1. Introduction release of the cargo on board without presentation of the bill of lading, although such practice is the opposite Much carriage of goods by sea is related to an of what the carrier should do to legitimise the delivery international sale contract. The seller has two separate and protect itself from liabilities. Against the sets of duties to perform in accordance with the background of vivid examples of carriers being sued international sale contract: namely, physical duties and for damages and going into bankruptcy, the practice documentary duties.
