ANNUAL REVIEW
The dry bulk sector is the largest shipping sector in terms of number of ships and
deadweight. Around 12,000 bulk carriers, accounting for 43% of the world fleet in
tonnage, employ over 300,000 seafarers globally at a time, calling at more than 1,500
ports around the world in non-regular (tramp) voyages to even the most remote areas
of the globe.
