Global Marine Crane Industry Outlook
Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global marine crane market will grow steadily over the next four years and post a CAGR of almost 5% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the rise in seaborne trade as one of the key growth factors of the global marine crane market. Two-thirds of the world trade is leveraged through the shipping industry for the import or export of goods and commodities. According to the marine crane market study, the growing demand for products among the consumer segment will fuel the growth of the market over the next few years. Moreover, factors such as the increasing seaborne trade with the rising efficiency of the ports coupled with the rising economic liberalization will further contribute to the growth of the global marine cranes market.
Though the rise in oil field discoveries will fuel the need for equipment such as marine cranes to deliver agile and seamless work production, the fluctuating market prices of the equipment will promote the end-users to opt for equipment rental services. Also, factors such as the high initial investment associated with the purchase of the machinery and benefits such as the elimination of maintenance costs and risks of accidental damage repair will also generate the need for rental machinery.
