This article uses univariate time-series models with data transformations and intervention models to forecast the volumes of twenty-two maritime traffic flows in the port of Antwerp which are expressed in tonnes. The models obtained produce forecasts that are a substantial improvement over those obtained with unadjusted data. The models also provide useful insight into the behaviour of maritime traffic flows during the period 1971-82.
