OCEMA has adopted a recommended Best Practice for Detention and Demurrage Dispute Resolution Processes.

The Best Practice calls for dispute resolution processes that are

  • Clear
  • Simple

Please note

Individual ocean carriers may deviate from the OCEMA Best Practice as they deem appropriate to meet operational or other business requirements. Please check with individual ocean carriers regarding their current policies for Detention and Demurrage Dispute Resolution.
