Loading terms and shipping conditions for Armourstone

Shipping conditions are FOB (Free on Board) or FAS (Free Alongside Ship). 
FAS-fixings are effective for "Schüttsteine" and "Armor Rock Stone/Boulder." 

In cases where the fixing is  FAS, but where the character is asking NCC to handle the loading directly onboard the ship/barge, NCC will charge NOK 12.95 per ton to cover the loading cost. This charge is based upon normal loading capacity and requires the loading to be proceeded without delay in loading due to ballast pumping, etc.

We recommend that JOS Shipping AS be appointed as the agent, and that the ship is keeping the agent well updated of the vessel's position and estimated time of arrival (ETA).
