We would like to inform you about the risk of seawater damage to commodi es due to severe storms
and other weather condi ons in the Black Sea.
Due to the weather condi ons on the Russian Black Sea and Sea of Azov coasts, there have been
reports of sea flooding and damage to commodi es in ports, warehouses and even during the
transport of commodi es by train and road, and some fields have also been exposed to sea water. In
addi on to port closures, some sec ons of na onal roads were closed due to heavy snowfall in
Ukraine. The closure of main road links to truck traffic caused poten al delays in cargo deliveries to
ports.
Weather condi ons have exposed the commodi es to the risk of seawater damage and we ng. For
this reason, it is important for the interests of both carriers and cargo interests to appoint surveyors
at the loading ports and to make determina ons regarding the loaded commodi es.
