In Europe, the main fall in turnover was in the Netherlands. Here, after the record year of 2001,<br />
volume mainly fell in the sand trading and dry earth moving segments. Weaker markets also meant<br />
that turnover was down in Germany and Scandinavia compared to 2001. The United Kingdom had a<br />
better year and Portugal performed at the same level as in 2001.<br />
Outside Europe, turnover in Mexico was well down on 2001 and the level of activity in the United States<br />
was stable. Home market Nigeria had a strong year as the result of a sizeable order for Chevron.<br />
There was no turnover in Brazil in <strong>2002</strong> and the activities there were wound down because of the<br />
poor market prospects in that country.<br />
