Petroperú: Overseas demurrage due to lack of funds to unload crude oil will already exceed USD 39 million in 2026
World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported48m ago
Petroperú has incurred financial losses exceeding 39 million US dollars in 2026 due to prolonged demurrage costs in open waters. The losses stem from an accumulation of oil tankers anchored off the coast of Peru that are unable to discharge crude oil because the state-owned company lacks the necessary funds.
Investigations initially revealed the economic damage caused by these anchored vessels, which accumulate escalating penalties and surcharges resulting from delays in offloading the petroleum cargo.
