(IMO International Maritime Law Institute, 2024-06-25) Aljuhani, Mustafa; Prado, Rafeal
The research covered various aspects of maritime negotiation, from basic rules and legal systems to detailed case studies and comparisons. The study provided an understanding of the current situation and potential future direction for maritime dispute resolution in Saudi Arabia within a global context. The dissertation began by examining the evolution of maritime arbitration, highlighting the significant role of foreign regulations such as the UNCITRAL Model Law and the New York Convention. The comparison of Saudi Arabia’s arbitration rules with global standards revealed a shift towards international norms while preserving unique legal and cultural aspects of the country. Case studies demonstrated the complexity of maritime arbitration and the necessity of understanding both local and international laws. Saudi Arabia has made significant strides in maritime law, including the introduction of a new dispute law and the establishment of the Saudi Centre for Business Arbitration (SCCA). The integration of Sharia laws into the arbitration process presents challenges but also offers a unique approach that aligns with local laws and culture. The future of maritime arbitration in Saudi Arabia looks promising, with continued alignment with global standards and innovative use of technology expected to enhance the effectiveness and appeal of Saudi Arabia’s arbitration system. Saudi Arabia’s participation in major maritime dispute conferences and collaboration with other countries will strengthen its global position. The lessons learned from Saudi Arabia’s experience are valuable not only for maritime law decisions but also for global considerations. As international trade continues to grow and evolve, the need for a flexible dispute resolution system becomes increasingly important. Saudi Arabia’s journey offers important lessons on balancing global standards with local laws, a crucial consideration for countries looking to improve their arbitration systems. The dissertation underscores the dynamic nature of maritime disputes, driven by changing trade patterns and legal regulations worldwide. As Saudi Arabia improves its dispute resolution capabilities, it contributes to the advancement of maritime arbitration globally. The study of maritime arbitration in Saudi Arabia reveals the complexity and dynamism of this field, which is critical for the smooth operation of international maritime trade. The insights and lessons derived from this research are valuable for policymakers, lawyers, and researchers, aiding in the future resolution of maritime disputes both within Saudi Arabia and in global contexts.
