More sailings with pilot exemption certificate

In 2013, there were 61 300 sailings where the duty of pilotage was met through a navigator on board holding a pilot exemption certificate. This is 8 000 more than in 2012 and constitutes an increase of 15 per cent. The total number of sailings requiring pilotage increased by 7 per cent in the same period.

Out of 107 400 sailings requiring pilotage, 61 300 were conducted through a pilot exemption certificate; 43 800 through a pilot on board; and 2 300 through pilot exemption. Use of a pilot on board and exemptions granted fell by 750 and 100 respectively.

Minor growth in vessel clearances

The vessel clearances carried out in the four areas with vessel traffic services (VTS) give us a broad picture of the traffic that the Coastal Administration manages. Four out of five clearances are granted by Kvitsøy (Rogaland) and Horten, with the remainder by Fedje and Brevik. With 294 000 vessel clearances in 2013, traffic is up slightly more than 1 per cent from the year before. Most of this increase was in Horten.

Own production up

The Coastal Administration’s spending on investments increased by NOK 61 million from 2012 to 2013. The NOK 785 million worth of investments in 2013 are the highest for three years. Own production, defined as the sum of wages and cost of purchased goods and services, increased by NOK 56 million, while labour input, measured in contracted man-years, went up by 7 per cent. With wages totalling NOK 903 million and a labour input of 1 084 man-years, this corresponds to wages per man-year of NOK 833 000, which is an 8 per cent increase from 2012.
