## Description

Helicopter operators serving North Sea oil and gas platforms, not freighter airlines, set the tone at Stavanger Airport, Sola (SVG/ENZV), the largest helicopter base in Norway. Air cargo throughput is modest at roughly 7,800 tonnes a year and moves largely as belly freight on scheduled services plus express traffic. Regular scheduled freighter rotations are not confirmed here; intercontinental air cargo is normally consolidated over Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) by road feeder service or feeder flight. The shipment profile is dominated by time-critical spares and equipment for the offshore energy industry rather than by general merchandise. The port of Risavika lies only a few kilometres away and supports multimodal solutions when volume or weight argues against flying. Norway is in the EEA but outside the EU customs union, so consignments from EU countries require full import clearance with VAT collection; the Norwegian customs administration is represented at the airport. The E39 runs north towards Bergen, and the Rogfast subsea tunnel project under construction is set to shorten that link substantially. Bergen Flesland (BGO) is the practical alternative for western Norway, while Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) is the address for freighter capacity and intercontinental connections.
