By Ronak Bora

Gaseous cargo barge transportation market is poised to exhibit immense growth owing to the increasing global trade of non-renewable and gaseous products like LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas), CNG, gaseous chemicals, and LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) among others. Barges are extensively used across various countries to transport bulk goods between several business verticals, which is increasing their deployment across various industries. Additionally, the market is also witnessing a significant product demand owing to the mounting government as well as private sector investments towards the exploration of new offshore drilling projects.

Large-scale industrialization and increasing manufacturing activities, majorly in Asia Pacific countries, is fueling secondary raw materials and the waste sector growth. Over the past few years, barge transportation has become one of the most efficient way of transporting bulk raw materials & wastes on account of bulk carrying capabilities and cost-effectiveness.

Open barges fleet segment currently observes massive deployment for transportation of non-perishable commodities like coal and iron ore. Deck barges are open rectangular barges with flat surface decks. While these barges do not have walls, and thus cannot be used for moving goods that need containerization, they are witnessing a substantial amount of demand for applications that involves the transportation of heavy equipment loads.

The MEA barge transportation market is anticipated to grow substantially as the key ports in the region manage heavy cargo volumes on a daily basis. The region already possesses a large fleet of barges, especially in some of the region’s most prominent countries, including Qatar, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia, which further supports growth of  the regional market.

Furthermore, as per MAWANI (Saudi Ports Authority), Saudi ports have handled an overall cargo tonnage of more than 21 million tons in April 2019. This number is about 3% more than the amount of cargo it handled in April 2018.

The competitive landscape of the barge transportation market is inclusive of players such as Crowley Maritime Corporation, Campbell Transportation Company, APL Logistics, SEACOR Holdings, Ingram Marine Group, Kirby Corporation, and American Commercial Barge Line (ACBL) among others.
