Demurrage The Profit Killer or Saver In Tanker Chartering

In the world of tanker chartering, demurrage can make or break a voyage’s profitability. In this episode, we dive deep into the mechanics of demurrage — what it is, how it’s calculated, and why it’s sometimes seen as a profit killer… or, surprisingly, a profit saver. We’ll explore real-life tanker cases from crude, product, and chemical trades, highlighting disputes, negotiation tactics, and settlement outcomes. Along the way, we’ll break down laytime clauses, common causes of delay, and strategies operators use to avoid unnecessary losses — or turn delays into revenue. Whether you’re a shipowner, charterer, or maritime enthusiast, this episode will change the way you look at “time lost” in tanker operations. #TankerChartering #Demurrage #ShippingBusiness #MaritimeOperations #Laytime #PortDelays #CharterParty
