Wilhelmsen's Wilnor Governmental Services now runs Olavsvern (UN/LOCODE NO RMJ), the former Ramfjordnes naval base in a fjord roughly 20 kilometres south of Tromsø, offering berthing, dry-docking and logistics support to Norwegian and allied naval and offshore vessels operating in Arctic waters. The 25,000-square-metre mountain complex was built for submarines and fast patrol boats and still houses a 340-metre rock cavern, a dry dock, workshops and former ammunition stores from its Cold War-era military service. Norway demilitarized and sold the base to private investors in 2013, after which it was repurposed as a commercial support facility rather than a public cargo port. It has no confirmed container or general-cargo handling capability, so shippers needing standard freight services should use the port of Tromsø itself. No verified tonnage or TEU figures exist for Olavsvern, reflecting its specialised role as a naval and offshore-support base rather than a commercial trading port.
