What a detention
can cost.

A rough estimate of one detention, by vessel type and days off hire. Adjust it to your charter. The point is the scale, not the decimals.

Your vessel

Lost hire plus running costs while the ship cannot trade. Edit it to match your charter.

Illustrative only. A detention's real cost depends on the charter, the port and the deficiency. A 48–72 hour detention typically runs €70k–215k all in; long detentions reach €350k–1.3M. This estimate is not a quote.

What the estimate does not count

The invoice is the smallest part. The costs that compound are the ones a calculator cannot show.

A higher risk profile

A detention raises the Ship Risk Profile, so the vessel is targeted more often and inspected in more detail for years.

The fixture you do not win

A detention on the record is visible to charterers. The cost of a nomination lost to it never shows on the invoice.

The scramble ashore

Superintendent time, surveyor attendance and the reshuffled schedule around a ship that cannot sail.

The cheaper alternative.

Finding the deficiency before the inspector does costs a fraction of this. See how Fleetward keeps your fleet ready.
