Forecast: Number of Dry Bulk Carriers in Denmark

The number of dry bulk carriers in Denmark, expressed in Million Gross Tonnage, exhibited variable year-on-year growth from 2013 to 2023. A peak was reached in 2018, followed by fluctuations until 2023, which stood at 17.07 million gross tonnage.

In recent years, there was a 1.05% increase in 2022 and a 1.78% increase in 2023. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) showed a slight decline of 0.04%, indicating a stable yet sluggish growth pattern.
