What type of transport takes the first place in terms of cargo turnover?

Water transport, namely sea transport, is the leader in freight transport all over the world; it accounts for as much as 62% of the entire existing volume. And, oddly enough, this figure continues to grow. The average distance of ships’ movements is about 10 thousand km. Routes are scattered over millions of kilometers, and the Atlantic is the most popular ocean for transporting a wide variety of minerals, goods and products.
