据报道,加尔各答高等法院下令一艘悬挂利比里亚国旗的原油油轮支付约8.8亿卢比,否则将被逮捕。
这是在油轮上的起重机损坏了Haldia石油码头臂之后发生的。法院被告知,这艘油轮也试图离开码头,以逃避其法律责任。
根据2017年《海事(管辖权和海事索赔解决)法》,逮捕船舶是指根据最高法院的命令扣押船舶,以确保任何海事索赔,包括扣留船舶。
***书还声称,由于油轮的原因,负责处理装有液体的集装箱的防油堤的双臂已经破裂,防油堤上的各种作业都必须停止。***书还提到,修复这些东西将需要将近一年的时间。
如果有关油轮当局支付进口新的码头臂的费用和每年因损坏而带来的收入损失,则可以尽量避免被逮捕。法院将于9月26日重审此案。
英文原文
The Calcutta High Court has reportedly ordered a crude oil tanker that flies the Liberian flag to pay about Rs. 88 crore or expect arrest.
This happened after a crane on that tanker impaired Haldia oil jetty’s arms. The court had been informed that this tanker was also trying to depart from the dock to avoid its legal liabilities.
Following the Admiralty (Jurisdiction and Settlement of Maritime Claims) Act of 2017, arresting a vessel refers to seizing it based on HC’s orders to secure any maritime claim, including vessel detainment.
The petition further claimed that owing to the tanker, the twin arms of the oil jetty that was responsible for tackling containers with fluid in them had been broken, and all kinds of operations at the jetty had to be halted. The petition also mentions that repairing these will take almost a year.
The relevant tanker authorities can try to avoid the arrest if they pay the cost of importing the new jetty arms and the yearly revenue loss brought about due to the damage. The court is going to revisit the case on 26 September.
