Newsfeed Update
Your cargo arrived without a scratch. You still received an invoice. General Average applies when a vessel master makes a deliberate sacrifice to save the ship and remaining cargo. Every cargo interest on board contributes proportionally to the loss. Regardless of whether their own cargo was touched. For project cargo, the contribution can be substantial. The cargo is not released until it is settled or a guarantee is provided. For a fixed commissioning date, even a one-week delay at discharge cascades through the entire operation. We review General Average exposure as part of every pre-shipment process. The time to address it is before the voyage.
