HEAVY CARGO MARKET FORECAST.

Maritime Forecast from MBM Consultancy provide a Consultation for the future market on the Heavy cargo sector required a detail study into the Oil price and surrounding factors.

These key factors were the delivery of raw materials in the first instance for manufacture of large machinery. Also, the demand and need for the end user of such equipment in the foreseeable future.

The Maritime Forecast from MBM Consultancy was  performed as the study due to internal available financial knowledge of these sectors. Also the internal maritime shipping forecasts and operational costs to transport all the materials and goods to develop and maintain the heavy project sector.

It was foreseen in 2016 that a downturn in the Heavy Cargo Market sector was inevitable from 2016-2018 directly based on the oil price which removed the Oil sector from the Offshore exploration market.

A new study is set to be instigated this year (mid 2019) to determine the forecast for the coming years of 2020-2022.

With a preliminary forecast set for a growth of 5%.

This growth may be subject to further growth dependent upon financial support from Chinese investment into 3rd world countries (Africa specific). With a small potential increase to the overall forecast growth subject to the EU. UK, and US markets, (approx up .3%). There may also be a increase in growth due to the upcoming recycle and installation program of heavy machinery for the maritime fleet and new building programs. Required to meet environmental rules and regulations, and thus mass scrapping of old and “not so old” cost inefficient vessels at an early age.

However, growth is very subject to the ongoing tensions in the Global World Trade/Tarriffs Agreements that are being disrupted/driven by the US.

Due to the COVID situation in 2020 a new study from MBM Consultancy will be available in the coming months. (to be posted 11-11-20).
