In the US, demurrage & detention costs have increased significantly
Maffei: worrying, but in the context of the situation of general congestion in ports and internal networks
January 28, 2022
'The significant increase in detention costs and demurrage invoiced by the companies - confirmed the president of the FMC, Daniel Maffei - it is certainly worrying, but it must be seen in the context of the situation of general congestion in the ports and internal networks of the United States." Stressing that the rules put in place to counter growth of these costs are having effect, Maffei specified that, "However, the results of the survey also confirm to me that we still have a long way to go and we must not withdraw from the our initiatives to combat or to introduce further rules on detention & demurrage recommended by Commissioner Rebecca Dye'.
