In no case shall there be any allow- ance for sacrifice or expenditure unless reasonably made or incurred. Uppoffringar och utgifter ska inte gottgöras, om de inte är skäliga. 1.There is a general average act when, and only when, any extra- ordinary sacrifice or expenditure is intentionally and reasonably made or incurred for the common safety for the purpose of preserving from 1.En gemensamt-haveri-akt före- ligger när, och endast när, en extra- ordinär uppoffring eller utgift av- siktligt och skäligen görs, eller upp- kommer, för den gemensamma säkerheten i syfte att från fara bevara peril the property involved in a common adventure. 2.General average sacrifices and expenditures shall be borne by the different contributing interests on the basis hereinafter provided. de värden som omfattas av den gemensamma sjöresan. 2.Uppoffringar och utgifter av gemensamt haveris natur bärs av de olika bidragande intressena enligt nedan angivna grunder. 1.There is a common adventure when one or more are towing or pushing another or , provided that they are all involved in commercial activities and not in a salvage operation. When measures are taken to pre- serve the and their cargoes, if any, from a common peril, these Rules shall apply. 2.If the are in common peril and one is disconnected either to increase the disconnecting ’s safety alone, or the safety of all in the common adventure, the disconnection will be a general average act. 3.Where involved in a com- mon adventure resort to a port or place of refuge, allowances under these Rules may be made in relation to each of the .

När åtgärder vidtas för att skydda fartygen och deras eventuella last från en gemensam fara, ska dessa Regler tillämpas. 2.Om fartygen är i gemensam fara och ett av dem lossgörs antingen för att förhöja det lossgjorda fartygets egen säkerhet, eller för att förhöja alla fartygens i den gemensamma sjöresan säkerhet, utgör lossgörandet en gemensamt-haveri-akt. 3.När fartyg i en gemensam sjöresa tar tillflykt till en nödhamn eller plats, kan ersättning i enlighet med dessa regler utgå i förhållande till vart och ett av fartygen. Med undan- tag för vad som anges i regel G, stycke 3 och 4, ska ersättning i gemensamt haveri upphöra när den gemensamma sjöresan avslutas.

Uppgift om värde ska inges från det att den gemensamma sjö- resan avslutats, i underlåtenhet av vilket det ska stå dispaschören fritt att beräkna ersättningens storlek på samma grund. Sådan beräkning ska kommuniceras skriftligen till den berörda parten.

Varje ytterligare utgift, som trätt i stället för annan utgift, vilken skulle ha ersatts som gemensamt haveri, ska anses vara gemensamt haveri och ersättas såsom sådant, utan hänsyn till den besparing som kan ha upp- stått för andra intressen men endast intill beloppet av den inbesparade gemensamt-haveri-utgiften. 1.General average shall be adjusted as regards both loss and contri- bution upon the basis of values at the time and place when and where the common adventure ends. 2.This rule shall not affect the determination of the place at which the average adjustment is to be prepared. 3.When a ship is at any port or place in circumstances which would give rise to an allowance in general average under the provisions of Rules X and XI, and the cargo or part thereof is forwarded to destination by other means, rights and liabilities in general average shall, subject to cargo interests being notified if practicable, remain 1.Såväl rätten till ersättning som bidragsskyldigheten i gemensamt haveri ska beräknas på grundval av värdena vid den tid och på den ort, där den gemensamma sjöresan slutar. 2.Denna regel ska inte påverka beslutet om var dispaschen angå- ende det gemensamma haveriet ska upprättas. 3.När ett fartyg befinner sig i en hamn eller på en plats, under om- ständigheter som skulle föranleda ersättning i gemensamt haveri enligt Reglerna X och XI, och lasten eller en del av den har vidarebefordrats till destinationsorten på något annat sätt, ska rättigheter och skyldigheter i det gemensamma haveriet, i den mån lastintressenterna om möjligt as nearly as possible the same as they would have been in the absence of such forwarding, as if the common adventure had continued in the original ship for so long as justifiable under the contract of carriage and the applicable law. 4.The proportion attaching to cargo of the allowances made in general average by reason of applying the third paragraph of this Rule shall be limited to the cost which would have been borne by the owners of cargo if the cargo had been forwarded at their expense.

Denna begräns- ning ska inte gälla ersättning i enlighet med Regel F. Rule I – Jettison of Cargo Regel I – Kastning av last No jettison of cargo shall be allowed as general average, unless such cargo is carried in accordance with the recognised custom of the trade. Överbordkastning av last ersätts som gemensamt haveri, bara om sådan last transporteras i överens- stämmelse med erkänd sedvänja inom ifrågavarande slags fraktfart. Rule II – Loss or Damage by Sacrifices for the Common Safety Regel II – Förlust eller skada genom uppoffringar för det helas räddning Loss of or damage to the property involved in the common adventure by or in consequence of a sacrifice made for the common safety, and by water which goes down a ship’s hatches opened or other opening made for the purpose of making a jettison for the com- mon safety, shall be allowed as general average. Förlust av eller skada på den egen- dom som omfattas av den gemen- samma sjöresan genom en upp- offring för det helas räddning eller till följd därav, liksom även skador av vatten som tränger ner genom ett fartygs luckor, när dessa öppnats för att verkställa kastning för det helas räddning, eller som tränger ner genom andra öppningar som gjorts i samma avsikt, ska ersättas i gemen- samt haveri. Rule III – Extinguishing Fire on Shipboard Regel III – Släckning av brand ombord Damage done to a ship and cargo, or either of them, by water or other- wise, including damage by beaching or scuttling a burning ship, in extinguishing a fire on board the ship, shall be allowed as general average; except that no allowance shall be made for damage by smoke however caused or by heat of the fire.
