1The high percentage change for the period February 2015-March 2015 is correct. The change is due to low import figures in February and the import of a storage vessel for crude oil in March.
2The figures are marked with the symbol *. This is Statistics Norways standard symbol for indicating preliminary figures.
3Due to the data collection method, the preliminary monthly figures published for ships and oil platforms are often incomplete. In retrospect, therefore, the trade in these goods could in some cases lead to major corrections in the figures. Please see tables 2-4 for the impact these figures have on the external trade.
