Chemical tanker is a tanker ship that is specially designed for the transport of chemicals on a large scale. These tanks, when made as oil and chemical tankers also hold the potential of cleaning petroleum products apart from transporting a variety of industrial chemicals. Sulfuric acid, caustic soda, and many other chemical cargoes are among the numerous chemical cargoes that are transported by these tankers. All of these cargoes might pose risks to safety and pollution. Due to carefully planned cargo arrangements, chemical tankers frequently transport small chunks of cargo, possibly transporting many chemical types at the same time.
Global demand for chemical tankers is being driven by the booming chemical industry and expanding production capabilities of chemical firms. Large-scale chemical product production due to the growth and development of the chemical industry has fueled an increase in demand for chemical tankers. Moreover, throughout the projected period, the chemical tankers market is anticipated to progress owing to the rising demand for vegetable oils and fats.
Chemical Tankers market is categorized on the basis of Product Type into Organic Chemicals, Inorganic Chemicals, and Vegetable Oils and Fats. In terms of both value and volume, the vegetable oils & fats segment is projected to hold a major share of the chemical tanker market throughout the forecast period. Since increasing number of individuals are becoming aware of the advantages of consuming vegetable oils and fats for their health, this segment is expected to grow at a considerable CAGR.
Chemical Tankers market is categorized on the basis of Fleet Type into IMO 1, IMO 2, and IMO 3. In terms of value and volume, the IMO 2 fleet type segment of the chemical tanker market is expected to grow at a higher CAGR over the forecast period. The use of IMO 2 chemical tankers for shipping vegetable oils & fats along with various types of chemicals including alcohols, alkanes, and alkenyl amide can be attributed to the expansion of the IMO 2 fleet type section of the chemical tankers market.
The Growing Need to Transport Chemical Products in the Safest Manner
The major leading factor for the global chemical tankers market is the increasing demand for secure transportation of various chemical goods. Moreover, the growth of the overall chemical industry is anticipated to support product demand and support the future growth of the chemical tankers market. In the coming years, advancements in the existing goods may help boost the demand for chemical tankers. Government programs and initiatives that focus on the advantages of employing chemical tankers to carry goods are expected to contribute to increased demand for such goods.
The Rising Need to Train the Crew for Handling Chemicals during Transport
Special types of ships are used to carry a variety of chemicals to be delivered in bulk, which has substantially increased to meet the demand of users worldwide. The crew participating in the entire process, from vessel building and design through loading, discharging, storing, and tank cleaning operations, needs special training more than just the specialized ships constructed principally to transport bulk chemicals through the sea. The crew must be properly trained to manage the many chemicals that are frequently transported through carriers owing to their unique features.
Unstable Prices of Crude Oil Prices
During the forecast period, changes in the price of crude oil is expected to hinder the growth of the market. The predicted speed of economic growth often declines as oil prices rise, whereas inflation expectations typically rise over shorter time horizons. Reduced economic growth prospects, in turn, lead to a reduction in company earnings projections, which has a moderate effect on stock prices.
