This sluggishness is a result of volatility in the oil & gas industry, owing to plummeting exploration projects. Consequently, the need for port maintenance and dredging projects has dwindled, leading to a downturn across the near-term forecast.
On the other hand, efforts to sustain international maritime trade are creating pockets of growth.
Downturns are largely attributed to volatility in the oil & gas sector, a key end-use industry for dredging projects. However, government efforts to address flooding problems in coastal areas and low-lying plains is likely to keep dredging projects demand sustained in the long-term.
Furthermore, efforts to sustain global trade volumes to reinvigorate the economy is providing much-needed stimulus to the market.
Key Takeaways
- High urbanization rate across emerging economies to fuel dredging projects in the long run
- Government agencies to comprise over 40% of the dredging equipment customer base
- Adoption of innovative equipment monitoring technologies such as smart virtual software growing
- East Asia to emerge as the largest market, expanding at over 4% CAGR
- Trade maintenance to be key application area, accounting for 3 out of 10 projects through 2030
“Rising concerns over possible environmental damage is prompting dredging corporations to collaborate with governmental and private players to develop eco-friendly approaches to expand their projects,” concludes an FMI analyst.
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented recession which is expected to influence the dredging market size to a large extent. Massive production crunches across the oil & gas and tourism sectors are adversely impacting the dredging market.
As the pandemic spread, the grounding of airplanes and automobiles led to a massive downswing in the transportation sector. This resulted in an abrupt demand shock across the oil and gas industry, compelling oil producing giants to cease production, leading to a glut in product inventories.
