Ports are seafaring commercial facilities generally situated on a shore or a coast used to transfer cargo & people and ship docking. Ports are the key component of the global transportation sector and play a vital role in expanding the world economy. Major factors responsible for the growth of the marine port services industry are the surging seaborne trade and the increasing development of port infrastructures. Moreover, the rising container handling services in recent years are anticipated to boost market growth.


Maritime Trade and Transport Witnessed Negative Demand Due to COVID-19 Outbreak


The demand for marine port services is directly influenced by international trade and economic cycles. The decreased production and consumption during the pandemic has led to a reduction in maritime trades, which, in turn, has reduced port traffic and shipping demand. A decrease in the demand for container transport has reduced activities in container handling ports. Thus, COVID-19 has had a negative impact on the port services market owing to the decreased demand for marine port services.



  • The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (UNESCAP) stated that in the first quarter of 2020, the container shipping volume worldwide reduced by 5.1% as compared to the same period in 2019.

  • According to the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), the revenue losses caused to the shipping industry due to the pandemic were USD 350 million per week.


Although COVID-19 has slowed the shipping and port traffic, the shipping industry has continued to play a vital role in the global goods transportation and supply chain. Many countries have implemented several measures to contain the spread of the virus and continue the sea trade. A slow recovery has been witnessed after the second quarter of 2020 owing to the increased freight rates.


LATEST TRENDS

Growing Adoption of Innovative Technologies is a Prominent Trend


Ports are progressively employing innovations in the entire value chain with a wide range of technologies. For instance, technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, and platform solutions are used for loading & unloading containers. Big data analytics and smart metering are used for storage facilities at ports, and smart energy management, predictive maintenance & smart grid technology are used for industrial processing. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the pace of adopting digital technology in the maritime sector.



  • For instance, in 2020, Awake.AI was selected by the Port of Rotterdam for the development of the smart port project. Awake. AI fashioned a smart ship port call management system to test all transformational processes without threatening the port’s massive operations.

  • The Yangshan Port in China is the largest automated port in the world.


Implementing advanced technologies helps to transform the port ecosystem from simple logistics and transport nodes to an efficient and open community that can participate in the integrated world trade.


DRIVING FACTORS


Surging Demand for Maritime Trade across the Globe is Expected to Fuel Growth


The maritime sector plays an important role in expanding the global economy. An increase in the seaborne trade across the globe is anticipated to boost the marine port services market share. As stated by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), around 80% of the global trade by volume is carried out by sea and is controlled by ports across the globe. The growth in maritime trade and transport is expected to fuel the demand for marine port services, such as terminal handling, logistics, and others. Moreover, the surging growth of container cargo is anticipated to increase the requirement of container handling services, which, in turn, would drive market growth.



  • In a report published by UNCTAD, it is stated that in 2019, 811.2 million TEUs (20-foot equivalent units) were handled by container ports worldwide, as compared to 795.3 million TEUs in 2018.


The rising shipping demand is expected to propel the growth of the port services market.


High Demand for Development of Port Infrastructure Anticipated to Propel Growth


The rising sea trade has created the need for alternate trade routes that are shorter to save time and cost. The use of alternate trade routes is expected to increase the construction of new ports alongside the new route.



  • For instance, ITF transport suggests that due to a rise in the temperature, the Northern Sea Route and the Transpolar Passage can be used as alternative routes. By using the Northern Sea Route for maritime freight between Northern Europe and Japan, it might lessen the voyage distance by 37%, as compared to routing through Suez Canal.


New ports are expected to be developed alongside the new trade routes, which will spur opportunities for the marine port services market growth. Moreover, the rising investment for the development of renewable infrastructure is expected to boost market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Regulatory Norms Rested by Several Regulatory Authorities May Hamper Market Growth


The ongoing global transition to a clean and green maritime sector is expected to affect the shipping industry. At the same time, the surging number of strict norms put forward by the international maritime environmental agencies regarding ship recycling, Sulphur emission, and greenhouse gas emission is set to restrain growth.


Following are some recent regulatory developments:



  • The International Maritime Organization (IMO) 2020 regulation expects to reduce the Sulphur cap in fuel oils to 0.50% from 3.50%.

  • The IMO aims to reduce CO2 emissions from shipping by 40% by 2030.

  • The IMO energy efficiency design index (EEDI) sets difficult standards for new ships.
