The Importance of this CourseAsdem’s Advanced Laytime and Demurrage training for the oil industry is for industry professionals who wish to be masters of this complex subject. Asdem’s most senior oil industry experts, who conduct this advanced level laytime and demurrage course, focus our workshops on active learning through the use of practical real life case study sessions.

Attending Asdem’s Advanced Laytime and Demurrage Workshop is therefore not a just a spectator sport. Delegates will develop their skills in handling the most complex laytime and demurrage calculations through analysing, synthesising, and applying the principles learnt in this workshop through discussion and evaluation with our trainers and other delegates.

We have substantially revised this workshop for 2020 to provide the most up to date and comprehensive laytime and demurrage training for the oil industry.

Course DescriptionThis workshop examines, in detail, a number of key issues and complex problems that have been highlighted by recent court decisions as well as issues and dilemmas faced by the industry. This training will also include several case studies and a mock arbitration in which delegates participate and present their position. This course will also involve full participation by delegates who can bring with them any current issues/problems they would like to review.

In demurrage negotiations, the person with the greatest knowledge and experience will inevitably be best placed to find opportunities for saving money.

This intensive two-day course allows enough time to cover a range of contentious demurrage claims which will provide delegates with an in-depth awareness of the many aspects of this important subject. The programme is specifically designed for demurrage analysts, claims handlers and lawyers who already have a good level of experience which they are looking to build on as well as those which have previously attended Asdem's laytime and demurrage training seminars and conferences.

A comprehensive advanced level manual is provided with this course which is designed as a training guide, a reference book and as an advanced guide to fundamental oil industry laytime and demurrage and will serve as a very useful and practical reference for all delegates attending this training.

We have arranged an informal drinks reception at the end of the first day of this training which will provide a further opportunity for establishing useful business contacts among the delegates.

In order to provide an optimal learning enviroment during this training we are limiting attendance to a maximum of 12 delegates.

Please also note that, in addition to our public courses, Asdem also runs a number of bespoke in-house courses for our clients throughout the world. For more informaiton on our in-house courses please contact us at events@asdem.com.
