  1. THE SCOPE OF ARBITRATION AGREEMENTSProfessor Nelson EnonchongNo5 ChambersUniversity of Birmingham

  2. All disputes arising “under”, “from”, “out of” or “in connection with” this agreement”.

  3. “Liberal width and flexibility to elastic and general words of the contractual submission to arbitration”.

  4. “In case of doubt, the arbitration agreement shall be interpreted in the sense that the arbitral jurisdiction extends to all disputes arising from the contract or from the relation to which the agreement refers”.

  5. “The construction of an arbitration clause should start from the assumption that the parties, as rational businessmen, are likely to have intended any dispute arising out the relationship into which they have entered or purported to enter to be decided by the same tribunal. The clause should be constructed in accordance with this presumption unless the language makes it clear that certain questions were intended to be excluded from the arbitrator’s jurisdiction”.

  6. “41.(a) This charter shall be constructed and the relations between the parties determined in accordance with the laws of England. (b) Any dispute arising under this charter shall be decided by the English courts to whose jurisdiction the parties hereby agree. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, but without prejudice to any party’s right to arrest or maintain the arrest of any maritime property , either party may, by giving written notice of election to the other party, elect to have any such dispute referred…to arbitration in London”.

  7. All disputes “resulting from this agreement”.
