The time sheet enables laytime and therefore demurrage or despatch to be calculated. [5] The demurrage fee is often a daily amount agreed between charterers and ship owners. Ideally, the demurrage fee (per day in US dollars) covers the daily time charter rate, daily voyage costs, and the ship owner’s risk premium. [6]
"Laytime" should not be confused with "Lay days". The latter refers to the period within which the shipowner should make the vessel "ready" to the Charterer at the place and time agreed in the charter party. "Cancelling Date" is the last day of "Lay days" and acts as a deadline to tender "Notice of Readiness".

Demurrage is a fixed sum per day or per hour that the charterer agrees to pay for any time that the vessel is detained for loading or discharging over the time contractually allowed—usually described as lay days. Sometimes the number of days the vessel may be kept on demurrage at the agreed rate is fixed by the charter-party.
There are three main types of charterparty: time, voyage and demise and another. In a demise (or bareboat) charter, the charterer takes responsibility for the crewing and maintenance of the ship during the time of the charter. S/he assumes the legal responsibilities of the owner, and is known as a disponent owner.
In a voyage or time charter, the charterer charters the ship or part of it for a particular voyage or for a set period of time. The charterer then can direct where the ship will go but the owner of the ship retains possession of the ship by its employment of the master and crew.
