I don't think the ocean produces nitrogen or oxygen for that matter. Nitrogen comes from fusion (in a star, hydrogen turns into helium, which in turn changes into heavier elements). The ocean may store some nitrogen as a dissolved gas and nitrogen in the form of compounds such as NH3 and other soluble salts.
