Berth Limitations Sample Clauses
The Berth Limitations clause defines the specific restrictions and requirements related to the use of berths at a port or terminal. It typically outlines factors such as maximum vessel size, draft, length, or other operational constraints that must be observed when a ship is assigned a berth. For example, the clause may specify that only vessels below a certain tonnage or with particular equipment can be accommodated. Its core practical function is to ensure that only suitable vessels are berthed, thereby preventing operational delays, safety hazards, or damage to port infrastructure.
