Seller makes no representation or warranty as to the quality of the LNG delivered to Buyer other than that it shall meet the Specification. 在完成待交付LNG 的裝載之后，賣方應盡快根據(jù)第28條，向買方發(fā)出或促成他方向買方發(fā)出一份通知，告知已裝LNG的品質。As soon as practicable following the pletion of loading of LNG for CONFIDENTIAL11delivery, Seller shall, in accordance with Clause 28, send or cause to be sent to Buyer a notice setting out the quality of the loaded LNG. 如果賣方在對已裝LNG進行卸載之前，意識到已裝LNG不符合規(guī)范要求，賣方需立即向買方發(fā)出通知（以下簡稱“不合格通知”）。買方在收到不合格通知后，Where Seller bees aware prior to the mencement of unloading that the loaded LNG does not ply with the Specification, Seller shall forthwith issue a notice to Buyer (“Off Spec Notice”). On receipt by Buyer of an Off Spec Notice:(a) 買方應通過合理努力，包括與買方設施運營商就相關LNG的處理或混合進行溝通，接受上述不合格LNG（以下簡稱“不合格LNG”）。Buyer shall use its reasonable endeavours, including discussions with the operator of Buyer’s Facilities in relation to treating or blending the LNG, to accept the off specification LNG (“Off Spec LNG”).(b) 買方在收到不合格通知之后，應盡快通知賣方：As soon as practicable after receipt of the Off Spec Notice, Buyer shall notify Seller either that: (i) 買方拒絕接收上述不合格LNG， 條進行處理；或Buyer rejects the Off Spec LNG, in which case Clause shall apply。 or (ii) 買方準備接收上述不合格LNG，買方在通知中需對因接收、處理或處置不合格 LNG而產生的買方成本進行誠意估算， 條進行處理。Buyer is prepared to accept the Off Spec LNG, in which case Buyer’s notice shall include a good faith estimate of the costs that Buyer will incur as a result of the receipt, treatment and disposal of the Off Spec LNG and Clause shall apply. （b）（ii ）條所述，買方準備接收上述不合格LNG ，賣方需在收到買方通知以后，盡快就其是否接受買方的估算成本通知買方。如果賣方接受買方的估算成本，則買方需接收該不合格LNG，賣方需對買方因接收、處理或處置不合格LNG而產生的成本對買方予以賠償，但是賣方向買方的賠償金額不應超過買方的估算成本。如果賣方不接受買方的估算成本，則視作買方拒絕接收上述不合格LNG。If Buyer is prepared to accept the Off Spec LNG under Clause (b) (ii), Seller shall as soon as practicable after receiving Buyer’s notice, notify Buyer whether or not it accepts Buyer’s estimate. If Seller accepts Buyer’s estimate, then Buyer shall accept the Off Spec LNG and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for the costs incurred by Buyer as a result of receipt, treatment and disposal of the Off Spec LNG, provided that Seller’s liability to reimburse Buyer shall not exceed the amount estimated by Buyer. If Seller does not accept Buyer’s estimate, then Buyer shall be deemed to have rejected the Off Spec LNG and Clause shall apply. 如果協(xié)議任一方在卸貨開始后、完成前，發(fā)現(xiàn)存在不合格LNG，該方需立即通知另一方，協(xié)議雙方需立刻暫停上述不合格LNG的卸載作業(yè)。需認定買方已接收了暫停作業(yè)前已卸載的所有不合格LNG ，針對買方因接收、處理或處置不合格LNG而導致買方承擔的所有損失、損害、成本或費用，賣方需對買方進行賠償，但是賣方的賠償責任不應超過交付量與合同價的乘積的同等金額（以下簡稱“不合格LNG價值”）。對于因暫停作業(yè)而未卸載的不合格LNG量，買方可以：Where either Party bees aware that Off Spec LNG exists after the mencement of unloading of the cargo but before Completion of Unloading, then that Party shall promptly notify the other and either Party may then suspend unload
