Odfjell is among the oldest existing shipping companies in Bergen, Norway. The roots go back to 1890 when captain Berent Daniel Olsen moved to Bergen to be a part of the modern shipping industry. The first joint ship owning company was registered in 1914 by Olsen’s sons, Fredrik, Abraham and Andreas Odfjell. As their logo, the Odfjell brothers adopted three interlocked rings in red, blue and yellow, representing each of the three. Fredrik and Abraham incorporated the joint ship management company AS Rederiet Odfjell in April 1915, and in 1917 the brothers took over the shipping company AS DS Storli.

At the outbreak of World War II, Odfjell managed a fleet of seven ships. The German occupation of Norway split the Odfjell fleet in two. The three ships in home waters were ordered to serve German occupants, whilst the four ships on the high seas were controlled by Nortraship, the Norwegian Shipping and Trade Mission, who was established in 1940 to administer the Norwegian merchant fleet outside of German-controlled areas. The home fleet suffered terrible losses. Two of the three ships were lost and 41 people perished. Three of the four ships in the Nortraship fleet came through the war unscathed. The only ship lost had been requisitioned by France and was sailing under French name and flag with a French crew.
