Nous avons appris, avec une grande tristesse, la disparition de Madame Françoise FRAUDEAU le 26 octobre 2017 qui accompagnait depuis 17 ans, avec fidélité et compétence,  MARINE CONSULTANT dans son développement, en Afrique, et notamment au SENEGAL.

Depuis plusieurs décennies, elle vivait à DAKAR où elle a partagé les responsabilités d’un Cabinet de courtage (SOSECA).

Plus tard, elle a rejoint un important Agent d’Assurances (SORAM), dont le portefeuille a ensuite permis, avec le soutien et la participation des Compagnies d’Assurances majeures du Marché  français, la création d’une Compagnie dynamique et inspirée, elle-même en charge de la partie la plus importante des risques « transports » du Marché sénégalais : la Compagnie LA NATIONALE.

Dès sa création, elle a consenti à entrer dans le pool « MARINE CONSULTANT » qu’elle représentait à Dakar, apportant aux professionnels de la Place avis et conseils de gestion.  

Françoise FRAUDEAU était fidèle en amitié. Elle aimait passionnément le SENEGAL, qui le lui rendait bien et, naturellement, elle avait  opté pour la double nationalité franco-sénégalaise. Elle vient de disparaitre, victime d’un incendie accidentel.

Nous garderons d’elle un très beau et bon souvenir.

Avec toutes nos sincères condoléances,

Gérald DURON

One year ago, the TEU weight verification requirement has entered into force.

At the beginning, the World Shipping Council and the International Chamber of Shipping issued a joint statement as to point out the misdeclared container weights issues faced around the world. Indeed those declarations could have an important impact on the Vessel’ safety for obvious reasons.

Following to propositions of governments, associations and others, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) accepted to amend the 1974’s convention on Safety of Life at Sea (called “SOLAS”).

Indeed the IMO adopted in November 21, 2014 the requirement that, as a condition for being loaded into the vessel, the container had to have its gross mass verified. It has become legally binding on July 1, 2016 in over 170 countries.

With the authorization of our friends ROOSE + PARTNERS, Solicitors in London, we publish hereafter the article issued by Charlotte GALE, partner of this Law Firm:

REMARKS

The above referred decision is very interesting as it denies the usual argument of the Owners and their P&I Clubs whom invoke systematically the following general clause inserted on the Bills of Lading: « weight, measure, quality, quantity, condition, contents and value unknown…» and sustain, especially, that they are not responsible for shortage, despite the joint tallies performed at the port of discharge.

The Traders and their clients have to make sure that the clause written in the London Arbitration decision («The number of bags signed for on the Bills of Lading…. ») is mentioned systematically on the Charter-parties. This will improve the merit of the recoveries against the Owners and their P&I Clubs, and enable to the insured, thanks to better statistics, to negotiate with their Insurers the premiums at preferential rates.

MARINE CONSULTANT remains at the disposal of all their friends and clients to inform them and brings its assistance.

MARINE CONSULTANT attended the meeting of the FANAF which took place from 15 to 18 February in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. This Organization which comprises the Insurance Companies of African national law, more than thirty countries, celebrated its 40 years anniversary and broke all attendance records, with about 1,000 participants.
