Stavangerregionen Havn runs a cluster of quays — Risavika, Mekjarvik and Dusavik — that together make the city Norway's principal base for the North Sea oil and gas industry. At Risavika, the offshore terminal serves supply vessels, bunkering and a Shell refinery, ranking among the largest offshore base operations in Northern Europe. The adjacent cargo berth, with more than 13 metres of depth and over 280 metres of quay, handles conventional and project cargo rather than mainline container traffic, which arrives mainly as feeder volumes. Ferry services link Risavika to Hirtshals in Denmark and to Bergen using LNG propulsion, and the city quays host a busy cruise calendar. Road links into Rogaland are strong, but the terminals lack direct rail-freight or inland-waterway connections. Shippers needing scheduled box services usually rely on feeders to Oslo, Kristiansand or continental hubs such as Rotterdam.
