Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 16. Commitments and Contingencies Various claims, suits, and complaints, including those involving government regulations and product liability, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, agents, insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Partnership's vessels. The Partnership is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision should be established in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Partnership accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the probable exposure. Currently, the Partnership is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision should be established in the consolidated financial statements. An estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by a charge to expense and a liability recorded only if all of the following conditions are met: Information available prior to the issuance of the financial statement indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements.
