Figures for ocean transport come from enterprises within the industry sub-classes of Passenger ocean transport, Freight ocean transport, Tugs, and Supply and other sea transport offshore services. With almost unchanged total operating costs, but modestly increased total gross freights, vessels in foreign going trade have maintained their “positive growth” status for 2013.

Increased income from bareboat freights

Bareboat freights from Norwegian charterers rose sharply by 114 per cent to 2.2 billion in 2013. In the same period, Norwegian time charterers also increased their freights to 11.6 billion, compared with 9.1 billion in the previous year. However, liner freights’ transport of goods decreased by 33 per cent.

Decline for general cargo ships

Freight income from general cargo vessels decreased by NOK 8 billion or 22 per cent in 2013. In the same period, freight income from tankers and offshore vessels rose by 16 and 34 per cent respectively.

Fall in bunkers and other voyage-dependent costs

In 2013, bunkers and other voyage-dependent costs decreased by 12 and 10 per cent respectively. Costs for renting manned foreign vessels fell by 21 per cent, from NOK 14.4 billion to NOK 11.5 billion, while Norwegian vessel rentals increased by 24 per cent during the same period. Total operating costs declined by 2 per cent, to NOK 114.2 billion.

Stable for coastal traffic

Turnover for coastal water traffic in 2013 constituted NOK 10.7 billion, compared with NOK 10.9 billion in 2012; a decline of 1.7 per cent. This is mainly due to reduced income from car ferries, foreign passenger transport and domestic freight transport. Turnover from car ferries fell by NOK 178 million in 2013.
