Barges are deployed by diverse industry verticals to transport or carry bulk goods over long distances. Sea routes play a vital role in facilitating trades across countries at an affordable price. Mounting private and government sector investments geared towards exploring new offshore drilling activities could stimulate the demand for Barge Transportation Market. On this note, a study conducted by Global Market Insights, Inc., estimates that the barge transportation market may cross USD 50 billion by the year 2026.
Gaseous cargo barges are expected to witness an exponential growth on account of surging number of international trades of non-renewable & gaseous products like gaseous chemicals, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). Gas products are primarily transported over tank barges as they ensure maximum efficiency and safety. Growing concerns over leakages linked to gas carrying pipelines could massively boost the adoption of Barge Transportation Market.
In terms of application, the Barge Transportation Market is categorized under agricultural products, coal & crude petroleum, metal ores, refined & petroleum coke products, food products, secondary raw materials and wastes, basic metals & fabricated metal products, beverages & tobacco, rubber & plastic, chemicals, and nuclear fuel.
Out of these, the secondary raw materials and the waste sector segment is likely to record substantial growth owing to escalating manufacturing projects, especially across Asia Pacific. Manufacturers prefer to transport their raw material inventory in bulk amounts to prevent price instability. Barge transportation comes as the ideal alternative for transporting bulk wastes and raw materials due to its bulk carrying capabilities and cost-effectiveness.
Elaborating on the regional front, the Middle East and Africa is considered to be a lucrative front for the regional barge transportation industry. MEA is renowned to home numerous large fleets of barges, especially in countries such as Qatar, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia.
