I'm going with B) Demurrage too. It matches the scenario of delays.

A) Detention sounds more generic. Maybe Demurrage is more accurate.

I think so too. Demurrage fees specifically refer to port delays, right?

Pretty sure it's B) Demurrage. I've read about it in shipping contexts.

Yeah, it's a bit technical. I'm torn between B) Demurrage and A) Detention.
