    It touches Russia in the North and has many cities on the coast. Bergen, Tromso, Trondheim, Stavanger; likely to have ports. Have you any idea where in norway the thing being shipped is originating?

    If it's from Bergen or Stavanger or nearer Oslo, I'd say the ship'll come down the North sea, through the channel to Waterford or Dublin, but that' spure speculation on my behalf

    Without alot more information speculation is all you will get. It is possible it won't come direct either. If it is transported Lo-Lo I wouldn't be surprised if it went via one of the big European container ports such as Rotterdam or Felixtowe. Less likely perhaps is that it would be transported Ro-Ro landbridge across the UK.

    Contacting the shipper would be the only way to find out for sure.
