About Port of Dusavik

Dusavik is a quay facility in Stavanger, Norway, historically important for fertilizer imports and now serving the oil industry. It is situated in a sheltered bay, historically noted for its calm waters.

Background
Dusavik er et området i nord i Stavanger kommune i Tasta bydel. Viken ligger i grensen mellom Stavanger og Randaberg kommune. Navnet Dusavik skriver seg fra adjektivet «dus», som betyr «mild, fint avdempet». Navnet forklarer at viken her lenge har vært sett på som en rolig og trygg havn, særlig for dem som kom rett inn fra Nordsjøen. Fra 1880-årene og fremover til første verdenskrig var havnen imidlertid viktigst som mottakshavn for gjødsel fra Bergen til jordbruket på Jæren. Havnen her er fremdeles viktig for oljeindustrien og brukes av Stavanger Interkommunale Havn.
