London Arbitration 9/11

GENCON -- SOF VS METEOROLOGICAL REPORT -- FREIGHT CALCULATION WHEN DISPORT NOT NAMED IN FIXTURE -- Partial Owner Award At the disport the Vessel’s statement of facts (SOF) referenced possible weather related delays yet when Charterer attempted to deduct said delays from time counting, Owner produced a weather report for a nearby port which reflected fair weather during the time in question. Additionally, there was a dispute over the calculation of freight when the nominated disport, albeit an acceptable port option, was not within any of the port ranges in the fixture’s freight rate schedule.
