Maritime transport is the carriage of goods and passengers by sea-going vessels, on voyages undertaken wholly or partly at sea.
The gross weight of each consignment is the weight of the actual goods together with the immediate packaging in which they are being transported from origin to destination, but excluding the tare weight of containers or Ro-Ro units (e.g. containers, swap bodies and pallets containing goods as well as road goods vehicles, wagons or barges carried on the vessel).
A main port is a statistical port which has annual movements of no less than 200 000 passengers or recording more than one millions tons of cargo.
