Drammen Port is the seaport of Drammen, in the city of Drammenin Norway. Overseas routes include Europe, Port code is NODRM.
Port Overview
Drammen Port (UN/LOCODE: NODRM) is a Norwegian sea and fjord port positioned where the Drammen River meets the Drammen Fjord, approximately 40 km southwest of Oslo. Its river-fjord setting gives the port a mixed industrial profile rather than a container-hub function: it handles general cargo, bulk, liquid cargo, vehicles and forest-industry products. The supplied port record states a total quay length of 3,260 metres across public and private industrial quays, with regular calls from coasters, bulkers, tankers and general cargo vessels. Our platform generally treats NODRM as an Oslofjord-area regional gateway whose suitability depends on cargo type, terminal confirmation, vessel dimensions and the final Norwegian inland destination.

Key Highlights
Facilities & Services
- Quay infrastructure: The supplied record reports 3,260 metres of public and private industrial quay. Berth allocation, cargo compatibility and working windows must be confirmed with the nominated terminal.
- Container handling: One mobile container crane is reported with a capacity of 100 tonnes. Container acceptance, equipment availability, lift limits and operating dates should be checked before issuing a firm plan.
- Quayside cranes: Three quayside cranes are reported: two with 23-tonne handling capacity and one with 50-tonne capacity. Actual safe working load depends on outreach, lift geometry, cargo centre of gravity and terminal procedures.
- Bulk and liquid cargo: The port includes two oil tanker terminals and one private liquefied-gas terminal according to the supplied data. Dangerous-goods acceptance, compatibility and advance documentation are mandatory considerations.
- General cargo and industrial handling: Coasters, bulkers, tankers and general cargo vessels are reported as regular vessel types. Warehousing, covered storage, open storage and transloading should be arranged directly against the cargo and terminal requirements.
- Inland distribution: Our service team can coordinate road collection and delivery around Drammen and the wider Oslofjord region. Vehicle type, axle restrictions, delivery slot and cargo dimensions must be validated for each shipment.
The listed equipment is taken from the supplied NODRM port record. It is not a guarantee that every crane or terminal service is available for every cargo, vessel or sailing.
Routes & Logistics Transit Planning
- NODRM is generally relevant to Norway-bound cargo connected with the Oslofjord region. International cargo may require a feeder, short-sea, transshipment or road connection, depending on origin, carrier network and equipment availability.
- For containerized cargo, our platform compares NODRM with alternative Norwegian gateways when the requested service, equipment, sailing pattern or inland destination is not suitably matched.
- Bulk, vehicle, breakbulk and project cargo should be planned around the receiving berth, vessel nomination, cargo readiness and handling sequence rather than a standard container transit promise.
- Actual transit time is affected by transshipment arrangements, weather and fjord conditions, port congestion, berth windows, customs release, terminal handling, road capacity and delivery-slot restrictions. Any quoted schedule remains subject to carrier and terminal confirmation.
Hinterland & Key Cargo
- Primary hinterland: Drammen and the surrounding Buskerud area, with practical access to the wider Oslofjord commercial market. The final delivery point, road restrictions and terminal location determine the most efficient routing.
- Import cargo: The supplied record identifies fruit, vehicles, bulk gypsum and general cargo as principal imports. Temperature control, vehicle processing, bulk dust management and discharge sequencing should be assessed separately.
- Export cargo: Timber, paper, plasterboard and general cargo are identified as principal exports, reflecting the importance of forest products and construction-related industrial flows in the regional cargo mix.
- Equipment matching: Flat racks, open tops, breakbulk lifting plans, bulk vessels or tank equipment may be more appropriate than standard dry containers for oversized, dense, dusty or liquid cargo.
Operations & Compliance
- Cut-off management: Booking cut-off, shipping-instruction deadline, VGM deadline, terminal receiving window and customs release deadline are separate controls. Our team obtains the actual cut-offs from the carrier or nominated terminal instead of applying a generic deadline.
- Dangerous goods: Oil, liquefied gas, chemicals, batteries and other regulated cargo require correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group where applicable, quantity, packaging and emergency-contact information. Acceptance must be confirmed before dispatch.
- Customs documentation: Commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, origin information and import or export data must be consistent. Norwegian Customs procedures and any commodity-specific permits apply according to the cargo and transaction.
- Inspection and inland delivery: Customs or terminal inspection can change release timing and generate handling or storage exposure. Cargo dimensions, gross weight, axle load, lifting points and delivery-slot requirements should be supplied before road booking.
For private industrial terminals, access rules and cargo acceptance may differ from public-quay procedures. Our service team confirms the responsible terminal and operational contact before submitting final instructions.
Shipping Tips
- Send our team the full cargo profile at quotation stage: commodity, dimensions, gross and net weight, packaging, temperature requirement, dangerous-goods status and final delivery postcode.
- For breakbulk, machinery or dense bulk cargo, provide a stowage or lifting plan early. Crane capacity alone does not confirm that the planned lift is safe or acceptable at the selected berth.
- For vehicles and forest products, confirm loading sequence, moisture protection, securing method, cargo tally and any terminal-specific receiving instructions before the vessel or truck arrives.
- Keep an alternative routing available through another Norwegian gateway when NODRM equipment, berth availability, vessel size, cargo type or sailing schedule does not match the shipment requirement.

Data Sources & Provenance
The hard figures in this module, including UN/LOCODE, coordinates, quay length, reported cargo activity, vessel limits and equipment specifications, are reproduced from the supplied NODRM port record. Operational availability, berth assignment, cut-offs, rates, schedules and acceptance conditions are time-sensitive and must be confirmed for the shipment.
