Chemical Tanker Shipping Market Size Worth $2.50 Trillion By 2025

November 2017 | Report Format: Electronic (PDF)

The global chemical tanker shipping market size is anticipated to reach USD 2.50 trillion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growing chemical trade on account of increasing manufacturing activities across the world is projected to augment market demand. The disparity in regional production and demand trends has triggered the global trade for chemicals and derivatives.

Organic chemicals such as acetic acid, alcohols, propene, benzene, salt, benzyl acetate, methanol, formic acid, and phenol are some of the vital substances shipped through chemical tankers across the world. The U.S., China, Germany, and Russia are some of the major exporters of chemicals and are expected to foster the global chemical trade over the coming years.

The U.S. will probably grow at a high rate on account of the increasing number of fleet owners, shipbuilders & charterers, availability of raw material, and capital inflow from multinational companies. The expanding market of Asia Pacific is one of the most significant areas for growth due to the presence of a large number of small manufacturers in the region.
