contract demurrage
A demurrage paid by a vessel's charterer if the time to unload the vessel at port takes longer than that agreed upon in the charterer's contract with the shipowner. Cf. DISPATCH MONEY. "The contract may also provide that if ... the loading time exceeds that fixed by the charter, the charterer will pay a liquidated compensation termed 'contract demurrage.'" Frank L.
