As mentioned in the email, we also believe that the other party's request for the ROB file is to assist in determining the impact of the fuel tank on the cargo. As the fuel tank needs to be kept warm during use or refueling.

From the GA, we observed that the top side tanks of cargo hold No. 6&7 are the fuel tank No. 1 FOT P&S and No. 2 FOT P&S, and there are no fuel tanks around other cargo holds.

Based on the attached ROB records, it is inferred that the fuel in No. 1 FOT P&S was consumed during the voyage, and both No. 1 FOT P&S and No. 2 FOT P&S were refilled in Singapore during this voyage. We do not rule out the possibility that the other party may further request temperature records of the fuel tanks or even suggest that the cargo was affected.

However, the consignee has not raised any concerns about the quality of the cargo in the top side of cargo holds No. 6&7 (near the fuel tanks) being worse than the bottom or other cargo holds. On the contrary, the shipper only claimed that the cargo in cargo hold No. 4 was poor. Moreover, from our on-site inspection, we only found abnormal discoloration in cargo holds No. 2, 4, and 5. Furthermore, the recorded temperature of the fuel tanks in the attached list is still lower than the temperature of the cargo. Therefore, we believe it is difficult for the other party to establish a causal relationship between the alleged cargo damage and the fuel tank.

Unless there are clear regulations on the use and warming of the fuel tank in the voyage instructions or lease agreement, we have not found any adverse factors for the shipowner in providing the attached documents to the other party
