Danish Ships

The statistics are consistent across time and comparable with similar statistics produced in other countries.

Comparability - geographical

The international register of ships Lloyd´s Register of Ships compiles statistics on all ships above 100 GT. The information is primarily based on the national registers of ships and is to a great extent comparable with the statistics compiled by Statistics Denmark.

Comparability over time

The statistics are comparable over time for the key data.

Since 1993, ships belonging to the Faeroe Islands have no longer been included in the statistics.

Before 1993 about 90 vessels of less than 20 GT were included in the statistics.

Coherence - cross domain

Comparable statistics are not available.

Coherence - internal

There is a high degree of consistency between the data sources, as all units in the statistics compiled by the Danish Shipping Council can be retrieved in the shipping registers.
