I've located a relative in Digitalarkivet: Emigrants from Stavanger. Sigvart M. Kalleland of Skåre, departing for New York 10 February, 1911. The report does not indicate a shipping line.

The Ships Index indicates missing records for the ports of Bergen and Stavanger. Do any Stavanger records exist for this date which might help me identify the ship on which he might have sailed?

I have not yet been able to locate him among New York arrivals.

Thanks, JK

You could try the old Stavanger newspapers. Unfortunately you will only find the name of the feeder ship to England, so maybe it is not much help.
