IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY EQUIPMENT MARKET
The COVID-19 impact on the hydrographic survey equipment market is unpredictable and is expected to remain in force till the second quarter of 2021. The COVID-19 outbreak forced governments across the globe to implement a strict shutdown of ports to contain the spread of the virus. Consequently, a rapid decline in import-export and travel activities via waterways was witnessed across the globe. This led to a sudden fall in demand for conducting regular hydrographic surveys across the world. Furthermore, the nationwide shutdown compelled enterprises that provide hydrographic survey services to shut down partially or fully. Due to the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, activities, and initiatives involving the development of revolutionary hydrographic survey equipment solutions have been delayed. According to the VesselValue agency, new shipbuilding orders declined by ~41% in 2021. Total 532 new vessel orders were placed n 2021, compared to 906 orders in 2021. However, the hydrographic survey equipment market is likely to rebound as various aerospace, and marine industry has been ramping up their services post unlocking in 2021. For instance, in May 2021, Dae Sun Shipbuilding & Engineering was awarded a contract worth USD 153.6 million by SITC International Holdings Company to deliver 8 1,023teu container vessels, plus an option for two additional vessels. The eight vessels are expected to be delivered by the end of 2023. Further, in May 2021, Hyundai Mipo Dockyard, Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (KSOE), ABS, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) Maritime Administrator signed a collaboration agreement for the development of liquefied CO2 carrier ship designs to achieve carbon emission reduction targets. As a result, the hydrographic survey equipment market is likely to be boosted in the coming years (2021-2031).
