KEY: dwt = deadweight tons.
NOTES: Origial selection of ports was based on the total
number of calls to that port by all vessel types. Of this set of ports, rankings
were then determined by the average container vessel size. Data include oceangoing
vessels of 1,000 gross tons and above. Capacity = dwt multiplied by calls. Port
geography in this table is defined by Lloyd's Maritime Information Services, and
differs from that in tables 10 and 11 where "U.S. ports" are based on U.S.
Customs designations.
