Grain, animal feed, fertiliser and building materials make up the bulk of what moves through Oldenburg, an inland and coastal port at the meeting point of the Hunte river and the Küstenkanal in Lower Saxony. Agricultural goods account for roughly 46 percent of the annual throughput of about 1.2 million tonnes, while sand, gravel and natural stone contribute around 36 percent. On average some 1,000 inland barges and 60 seagoing vessels call each year, with the port also acting as a transit point between the Rhine-Ruhr area and the Weser-Ems region. Several cranes and loading bridges, including heavy-lift units, handle bulk and project cargo. The Küstenkanal links the port to Germany's western canal network, while the Hunte connects downstream to the Lower Weser and the seaports of Brake and Bremen. Container and international general-cargo traffic is minimal, so shippers with such consignments are better served by Brake, Nordenham or Bremen.
