Maritime
Maritime statistics cover a wide range of subjects, including passenger and freight traffic at UK ports, freight traffic on UK inland waters, and ships in the UK registered and UK owned fleets and in the world fleet. Information is also available on the number of UK seafarers, and port related employment in the UK.
The notes and individual tables in the first five links below are mainly drawn from the Maritime Statistics Unit's annual reports and quarterly circulars. The publications produced by the unit are also listed separately in the second five links.
