Article 10 of the Salvage Convention
Article 10 of the Salvage Convention states that if reward negotiations fail, the salvor (the person providing salvage services) can request a "Salvage Award" from the court. This award is a monetary compensation reflecting the value of their efforts in saving the vessel or cargo. The article outlines the process for claiming and determining these awards to ensure that salvors are fairly compensated for their work in rescuing ships and property at sea, even if the parties can't agree on the reward amount initially.
