Detention Time Sample Clauses
The Detention Time clause defines the period during which a vessel is delayed beyond the agreed-upon loading or unloading time at a port. In practice, this clause specifies how long a ship can be held at the terminal before additional charges, known as detention fees, are incurred by the charterer or cargo interests. For example, if a vessel is kept waiting due to port congestion or slow cargo operations, the Detention Time clause determines when compensation becomes payable. Its core function is to allocate responsibility and costs for delays, incentivizing efficient port operations and providing financial protection to the vessel owner.
