Opportunities: Increasing demand from the oil & gas industry
The oil & gas industry is steadily growing as it is continuously redefining the production possibilities. Technological innovation has made it possible to extract fossil fuels that were not accessible just a decade or two ago. Oil & gas companies are moving to deep water and ultra-deep water for finding new oil & gas reserves. The Gulf countries, however, have the largest crude oil reserves. There are opportunities for rising import and export of crude oil, LNG, and chemicals between countries involving the usage of large ships and vessels, such as crude, LNG, LPG, and chemical, and other carriers. This growth will automatically lead to an increase in the demand for marine coatings in the construction of large ships and vessels during the forecast period
Among resins, the polyurethane segment of the marine coatings market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, in terms of value.
Among resins, the polyurethane segment of the marine coatings market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022, in terms of value. Polyurethane is versatile and environment-friendly, available in a wide range with different degrees of rigidity and solid content; it also provides superior properties such as corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, impact strength, and low-temperature flexibility that influence their use in many applications. Polyurethane can be formulated into a compliant coating for many different substrates due to its zero-to-low VOC content.
The Asia Pacific marine coatings market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, in terms of value.
The marine coatings market has been studied in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa. APAC is the largest and the fastest-growing marine coatings market. It is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period and offer significant growth opportunities to the marine coatings market players. The demand for oil and gas has increased in tandem with the rapid urbanization and industrialization. This has, in turn, fueled the demand for large cargo vessels, thereby, increasing the demand for marine coatings in the region.
