2594. Where the insurer accepts the abandonment, he becomes, from the time of the loss, the owner of the interest of the insured in whatever may remain of the insured property and all rights and obligations incidental thereto.

An insurer who has accepted the abandonment of a ship is entitled to any freight earned after the loss, less the expenses of earning it incurred after the loss. And, where the ship is carrying the ship owner’s goods, the insurer is entitled to a reasonable remuneration for the carriage of them subsequent to the loss.
