ship from its responsibility towards our representative. In case any doubt occurs, our 
representative will be entitled to leave the ship, and the customer will be invoiced in 
accordance with our normal fee, including travelling expenses. 
 
If a superintendent engineer is available at one of our Diesel Service Centres in, or 
close to, the area in which the service visit is requested, we propose you request the 
visit from that Centre, thus reducing travelling time and expenses. In this case, the 
service fee will be in accordance with the rate charged by the Centre in question.

below are exclusive of any local tax or VAT, which must be borne by the customer.
