Who pays for WWD in the given terms?

• A. The charterer
• B. The shipowner
• C. Whoever is paying for the ship's fuel
• D. The cargo owner

Answer: (C)

WWD is a bunkers-related operating cost. In chartering, charges that arise from the ship’s day-to-day operations—like fuel-related costs—are allocated to the party who actually pays for the bunkers. So WWD is charged to the same party that funds the ship’s fuel. If the terms say the charterer (or whoever is paying for bunkers) covers bunkers, they also cover WWD. That’s why the correct answer is the option describing the fuel payer.
