The chemical tanker market has been witnessing steady growth over the past few years driven by increasing seaborne trade of chemicals across the globe. Chemical tankers are cargo ships designed to transport chemicals in bulk. They are usually make of stainless steel constructed with separate tanks to prevent the accidental mixing of different product types. The rising global industrial production has boosted the demand for chemicals, which, in turn, has positively impacted the chemical tanker fleet size. Furthermore, strict environmental regulations regarding the transportation of chemicals through alternate modes have augmented the demand from this ship type. However, volatility in raw material prices remains a key challenge for the sustainable growth of the chemical tanker market.
Market Dynamics:
The global chemical tanker market is primarily driven by robust growth in international seaborne trade of chemicals. Rapid industrialization across emerging economies, such as China, India, and Southeast Asian countries, has substantially increased the demand for petrochemicals, fertilizers, and other industrial chemicals over the years. Meanwhile, stringent emission control regulations imposed on road and air freight have boosted the share of waterborne transportation of chemicals. Furthermore, technological advancements in vessel capacity and construction have enabled the large scale transportation of chemicals via sea at economical rates. However, volatility in raw material prices remains a key challenge for market players due to uncertainty in operating costs.
