This type of project requires several BIMCO contracts in combination. The seminar offers participants a comprehensive overview of the commercial and contractual issues involved.
Some of the topics you will cover.
A vessel is chartered to go from Hamburg to Greece with 10 pieces of heavylift cargo. The vessel encounters heavy weather in the Bay of Biscay and two pieces lashed on deck are lost overboard and another three stowed under deck turns out to be damaged. Is the carrier liable for the loss of the cargo? And how much might be recovered from the carrier, if that is the case?
In the case study, participants will work in small groups to consider the full scenario and a range of problems and questions that arise. The cases will be a focus for dialogue and will help the participants understand the complexities of heavy lift cargo.
Apart from the practical considerations and the important voyage planning that arise in relation to heavy lift cargoes, there are also some very specific and distinct contractual needs in this trade. To assist those entering into charter parties for heavy lift cargoes and identifying suitable terms to govern their contracts of carriage, BIMCO has produced a range of documents, which today spans the entire industry, the following will be explained during the course:
