Tonnage is a measure of the cargo-carrying capacity of a ship . The term derives from the taxation paid on tuns or casks of wine . In modern maritime usage , tonnage specifically refers to a calculation of the volume or cargo volume of a ship . Tonnage should not be confused with displacement , which refers to the actual weight of the vessel . Tonnage is commonly used to assess fees on commercial shipping .
