NOTES
Liner vs tramp
Лайнер – это судно, которое совершает рейсы по расписанию, в противоположность грузовому судну, не имеющему твердых маршрутов и расписания и перевозящему грузы в любой порт, на который фрахтователи найдут заказ. Трамповые суда могут фрахтоваться на рейсовый чартер и чартер на срок; многие танкеры относятся к таким судам.
Cargo, freight, load
Следует отметить, что слово «груз» в русском языке может означать 1) непосредственно перевозимый груз и соответствовать английским словам cargo, freight и load, а также 2) партию товара. В этом случае оно перевозится на английский язык как consignment, lot, parcel. Слово shipment означает партию отправленного товара.
Следует отметить, что слово freight в зависимости от контекста может также подразумевать: 1) перевозку грузов морем (sea freight – морские перевозки грузов) или по воздуху (air freight – воздушные перевозки грузов); 2) стоимость доставки грузов по определенному маршруту морем или по воздуху.
Фрахт взимается на основе веса или занимаемого объема (weight and measurement). Обычно плата назначается за тонну или кубический метр, и фрахт платится за то, что выше по показателям. За некоторые грузы оплата производится на основе принципы «по стоимости» (ad valorem) и представляет собой определенный процент от стоимости ФОБ. Обычно фрахт уплачивается при поставке грузов на отправку (freight prepaid), но в некоторых случаях он выплачивается по прибытии на место назначения (freight forward).
Shipping conference
Картель судовладельцев – ассоциация судовладельцев, суда которых эксплуатируют одни и те же линии. Судовладельцы вырабатывают единые фрахтовые ставки, тарифы пассажирских перевозок и условия контрактов. Суда, принадлежащие к картелям, называют линейными судами (conference line ships).
