Global digital shipyard market expected to drive due to the growing procurement of advanced vessels by navies across the globe and increasing use of new manufacturing technologies in shipbuilding
The global digital shipyard market size was valued at USD 37.4 Million in 2019 and projected to reach USD 3002.3 Million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 23.05%, during the forecast period, 2020-2027. It is primarily attributed to the surge in the adoption of product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions and the growing use of cloud-based maintenance systems. Additionally, the increasing use of 3D digital mock-ups, PLM solutions, digital twin technology, etc. in the manufacturing of the shipbuilding will fuelling the growth of the digital shipyard industry across the globe. Furthermore, augmented budgets of shipping companies for digitalization of their vessels, and growth of the seaborne trade across the world is driving the digital shipyard market.
Ships are sophisticated products with long service lives and high costs of construction, manning, operating, maintaining, and repairing. Also, ship manufacturing involves complex production processes, with large-scale but short series production, a high degree of customization, and intensive labor. These factors will spur the demand for Industry 4.0 prototype, technological capacities, to design better products, improve the efficiency of ship services, and offer new value-added processes. Furthermore, the upsurge in demand for the additive manufacturing, Big Data, cloud, horizontal and vertical integration, internet of things, cybersecurity, simulation robots, and augmented reality in the shipyard to repair, maintain, and checkup services, as well as technical support. This digital transformation in the shipyard industry will boom the growth of the market in the analysis period.
