Q) A vessel arrives in port at 0600 hrs on Wednesday 20th March with
17,200 tons of rock phosphate. NOR was accepted at 0900 hrs on same
day. Relevant Charter party terms are as follows:
 Cargo to be discharged at the rate of 3200 tons per WWD, SHEX.
 Demurrage if any to be paid at the rate of 6000 USD per day and
prorate, dispatch if any at the rate of 3000 USD for all time saved.
 Time to start once the NOR is accepted.
Discharging commenced at 1200 hrs on 20th March and was completed at
1800 hrs on 26th March. Bad weather stopped work for 6hrs on 22nd March
and further 2hrs on the 24th March afternoon. Calculate the amount of
demurrage or dispatch as applicable. (Jan–18)
Ans:- 20th Wed March 0900 NORA

Laytime to start @ 20th March Wed 0900
Laytime = 17200 / 3200 = 5D 9hrs
Bad Weather:- 6hrs 22nd March & 2 hrs 24th March

Q) A Charter party requires a bulk carrier to discharge using her own self
un-loader a B/L of 32,500t of fertilizer at the rate of 4500 t per working
day. Of this, 21,000t is to be discharged at the first port, and the
remainder at the second port, SHEXUU. Laytime to commence 12 hours
after NOR is tendered. Time from 1400 hours on Saturday or on the day
preceding the holiday, till 0900 hours on Monday or on the day following
the holiday, is not to count as lay time.
The vessel arrived at the first port on Friday 21st March at 0210. NOR was
tendered and accepted at 0945 hours, but discharge commenced only at
1900 hrs and was completed on Tuesday 25th March at 1215 hours, no
cargo work being done over the weekend.
The vessel arrived at the final discharge port on Thursday 27th March and
gave NOR at 0600 hrs same day, and worked non-stop until completion of
all discharge.
The lay time statement prepared by Master at the end of the discharge,
basis “Reversible Days”, showed exact utilisation of entire Lay time with
“NO DEMURRGE OR DESPATCH”. Replicate the laytime statement prepared
by Master and find when and at what time did the vessel complete her
discharge. (Nov-17)
Ans:- Laytime = 32500 / 4500 = 7D 5hrs 20m
SHEXUU
Load:- Laytime to start 12hrs after NORT 0945 @ 21ST March.
∴ 2145 Laytime start 21st March 1400 Sat – 0900 Mon NTC

Q) A Ship’s Tropical, Summer and Winter deadweight capacities are
respectively 10286, 9948 ad 9613 Tonnes. She is to load at Vancouver for
London via the Panama Canal Calling at Los Angeles and Curacao for fuel. On
Departure she will have on board 370T of Fuel, 180T of Water and 12T of
Stores. She Consumes 27T of Fuel and 6T of Water and Stores Daily.
Passages are estimated as follows:
I) Vancouver to Los Angeles: 4 Days – All Summer
II) Los Angeles to Panama Canal: 9 Days – Summer – Tropical in that order
III) Panama Canal to Curacao: 3 Days – All Tropical
IV) Curacao to London: 12 Days – Tropical 2 Days, Then Summer for 4 Days,
then winter for 6 days. Find the Maximum Weight of Cargo the Ship can
lift at Vancouver if she is to maintain a reserve of 6 Days of Fuel at all
times. What quantities of fuel should she take in Los Angeles and
Curaco, respectively, if fuel prices are lower at the latter port. (Sept-17)

Q) A Charter Party provides for a Bulk Carrier to load 72,000 MT of iron ore
at the Port of Paradip (East Coast of India). The loading rate of 24,000 MT
per day at the load port and discharging rate of 12000MT per day at the
discharge port has fixed. The entire shipment of cargo is to be discharged at
Shanghai (port of China), Notice of Readiness (N.O.R) to be tendered on
vessel’s arrival but accepted within office working hours between 0900 hrs
to 1800 hrs from Monday to Friday and between 0900 hrs to 1400 hrs on
Saturday. Laytime to commence 6 hours after tending N.O.R. Time not to
count between 1200 hrs (noon) on Saturday and 0600 hrs on Monday. The
vessel arrived at the Paradip port on Saturday 4th September at 0600hrs and
N.O.R. tendered on arrival. Loading commence at 1200 hrs on 4th September
and completed at 0600 on 6th September. The vessel arrived at discharged
port i.e. Shanghai and commenced discharging on 19th September at 1800
hrs N.O.R. tendered and accepted at commencement of permissible times
per the terms & conditions of the charter party. Discharging completed on
30th September a 1500 hrs. Demurrage at $22,000 per day or pro-rata for
part of a day and dispatch at the half demurrage rate per day or pro rata for
part of a day is to be computed.
You are required to prepare a laytime statement and calculate the amount
due to the ship-owner or charterer if the laytime allowed is on the ‘Normal
Basis’. (Jan-17)
Ans:- Since it say’s Laytime to start 6 hrs after tendered. So it starts @ Mon 0600.
(If it said after being accepted then it would be after office hours). So here office
hours means, nothing.

Q) A vessel is to discharge at the rate of 800 tons per running day and
freight is payable at the rate of $ 16 per ton on quantity delivered or on B/L
weight less 2% in lieu of weighing, at receivers option. The consignee opts
not to have the cargo weighted out, and the B/Ls were signed for a total of
6750 tons 25% of the charted freight was paid in advance at the loading
port. Demurrage, if incurred, is payable at $3000 per day and pro rata and
dispatch money is payable for all time saved at half the demurrage rate. Lay
days are to commence 24 hours after notice of readiness is accepted or
when discharging begins whichever is earlier. Notice was accepted at 11.30
a.m. on Tuesday 14th October and discharging commenced at 4 pm on the
same day. Work went on continuously day and night, except for the period
from midnight on Saturday 18th October until 7 am on Monday 20th October
when no work was done. Discharging was completed at 5.45 p.m. on
Tuesday 21st October.
Prepare a lay time statement and calculate the amount of cash due to the
ship at the discharging port. (Nov-16)
Ans:- Laytime = 6750/ 800 = 8D 10h 30m
Laytime to commence 24 hrs after NOR accepted or when discharge begins earlier.
