핵심 사항
- Most demurrage originates in the receiving operation, not the port.
- Transit condition must be specified before loading, not managed after.
- Route disruption planning belongs in the procurement calendar.
Delay
Congestion, weather, equipment shortage, documentary holds and inspection all extend the chain. Planning from historical arrival data rather than quoted transit times is what makes a schedule survivable.
Damage and cost escalation
Moisture ingress, condensation, contamination from previous cargo, and physical damage in handling. Cost escalation follows from delay: demurrage, detention, storage and emergency inland transport.

자주 묻는 질문
Can demurrage be avoided entirely?
Not entirely, but most of it is controllable through realistic laytime, advance document readiness and confirmed discharge and evacuation capacity.
Who carries transit risk?
The Incoterm determines it. Insurance scope should be checked against that allocation rather than assumed.
