Description

In this episode of Case by Case, Luke Zadkovich and Calum Cheyne welcome FZ London associate Lucy Noble.

 Lucy has been a real star in our team since joining on qualification a couple of years ago. This interesting case about compliance with Charterers' orders was right in her sweet spot.

The three discuss the English Commercial Court case of CM P-Max III Ltd v Petroleos Del Norte SA (Re MT Stena Primorsk Voyage Charter) [2022] EWHC 2147 (Comm) (12 August 2022). The case turned on whether or not the Master reasonably decided not to follow Charterers' instructions to berth, citing safety grounds. As ever, we get into it and it prompts a lot of interesting discussion.
