ASBATANKVOY — LOADPORT — BERTH — DETENTION — DEMURRAGE — INDEMNITY — CONSOLIDATION OF POTENTIAL CLAIMS INVOLVING MULTIPLE PARTIES — Partial Charterer Award
A collapsed breasting fender at loadport caused an eleven day berthing delay for the Vessel, subsequently allowing the Owner to file for a demurrage claim. The Charterers counterclaimed that the fender collapse was caused by the Vessel and demanded indemnity for demurrage on four other vessels and indemnity for a potential damages claim from the dock owner.
