exceeding laytime or breach of the laytime Explanation: laytime (the time allowed for loading, discharging, or lighterage). http://www.logistiqueconseil.org/Articles/Transport-maritime... Délai de planche Délai, défini par convention, accordé au chargeur ou au destinataire pour effectuer les opérations de chargement et de déchargement d'un bateau ou d'un convoi. http://www.tankersinternational.com/basic_glossary.php Laytime The amount of time the charterer is allowed to use for loading and discharging. https://maritimejournal.murdoch.edu.au/index.php/maritimejou... Further, the availability of general damages turns on the circumstances of the case. The construction of the demurrage provision in the charterparty is significant. The nature of demurrage is also significant. This article suggests that the court should draw a distinction between demurrage and other damages. To define demurrage as damages for breach of the laytime/demurrage provision causes confusion as to whether general damages are available in addition to demurrage. The circumstances in which general damages should be awarded would be more easily determined were demurrage defined as a payment for the use of the ship beyond the agreed lay days rather than damages for breach of the laytime/demurrage provision. http://uk.practicallaw.com/books/9781847667038/chapter05 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs (2013-12-27 13:02:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laytime In commercial shipping, laytime is the amount of time allowed (in hours or days) in a voyage charter for the loading and unloading of cargo.[1] If the laytime is exceeded, demurrage is incurred. If the whole period of laytime is not needed, despatch may be payable by the shipowner to the charterer, depending on the terms of the charter party (despatch does not apply to tanker charters). |
