Major Drivers of Liquid & Bulk Transportation Vessels Market

The demand for refined products has been increasing in developing countries, such as China and India, owing to rapid industrial development and rise in household income in these countries. For instance, as per BP stats, consumption of petroleum products increased from 94.40 million barrels per day in 2014 to 98.27 million barrels per day in 2019 across the globe. The increase in global demand for oil & gas products is creating the need for trade activities in petroleum products. Oil tankers are used to transport petroleum products. This is anticipated to propel the liquid & bulk transportation market in the near future. The demand for clean fuel energy has been increasing significantly across the globe. The growth in demand for clean fuel energy can be ascribed to the introduction of stringent regulations to limit GHG emissions in end-use industries. LNG is a prominent clean fuel, as it offers cost effectiveness over other fuels and ease of transportation and storage.
