seaborne trade


Explanation:
Value of volume of world trade by sea

It is difficult to quantify the value of volume of world seaborne trade in monetary terms, as figures for trade estimates are traditionally in terms of tonnes or tonne-miles, and are therefore not comparable with monetary-based statistics for the value of the world economy. - http://www.marisec.org/shippingfacts/worldtrade/volume-world...

------------

Seaborne trade is a vital component to the health of the global economy and the world relies on its global fleet of ships with a cargocarrying capacity of 743.8 million deadweight tonnes to carry every conceivable type of product. From grain to crude oil, iron ore to chemicals, the latest United Nations figures show that more than 5.8 billion tonnes of trade was transported by sea in 2002. - http://www.ourwordourbond.net/ShippingNetwork/no-1-issue1/ar...
