Investigators said the man, a Ukrainian national in his thirties, admitted to falling asleep while on duty on his own.
He has been charged with negligent navigation and police are also investigating whether rules regarding working and rest hours were adhered to on board the vessel.
No one was injured in the incident.
The Cypriot-flagged cargo ship, the NCL Salten, had 16 people on board and was travelling south-west through the Trondheim Fjord to Orkanger when it veered off course.
