ASBATANKVOY — COASTGUARD — BERTH — LOADPORT — CHARTER PARTY — LAYTIME — DEMURRAGE — Charterer Award
Once inspected by the coastguard, the Vessel was required to undergo minor repairs in order to comply with berthing standards at loadport. The Charter Party stipulates that any time loss resulting from non-compliance to safety regulations shall not count as laytime; however, the Owner filed for demurrage claiming that the infractions were minor and did not hinder the loading process.
