JOHNSON, Circuit Judge:

This case calls on the Court to determine whether the M/T OVERSEAS ARCTIC, Overseas Bulktank Corporation, and BP Oil Shipping Company (collectively referred to as “Carriers”) breached their duty to properly and carefully load, carry, care for, and discharge high-temperature fuel oil 1 under the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act (“COGSA”) during a voyage from Guayanilla, Puerto Rico, to the ports of Good Hope and St. Rose, Louisiana. The district court found that the carriers did not violate said duties. This Court agrees and therefore affirms.
