    Market Drivers

    The market is expected to increase due to some of the key factors-

    1. Growing Shipping Industry: The shipping industry is an integral part of global commerce, with more than 80% of traded goods being transported through oceans. Marine craft such as cargo ships, container ships, tankers, etc. are used extensively driving the demand for marine diesel engines.
    2. Stringent Emission Regulations: According to recent statistics by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) ~858 million tonnes of CO2 emissions globally come from the shipping industry in 2022, which is more than the amount of CO2 emitted by air transport. Governments across the globe, including a few international organizations like International Transport Forum (ITF), etc. are aiming to decarbonize maritime transport by 2035. Marine diesel engines have evolved to meet emission standards, leading to the replacement of older engines with more efficient and eco-friendly ones.
    3. Rising fuel prices demand fuel efficiency: Depending on the type and service of watercraft, fuel costs represent ~50-60% of total ship operating costs. While fuel prices are increasing over the years, consumers are looking for fuel-efficient options. Marine diesel engines offer higher fuel efficiency and are in demand as they help cut operational costs and reduce the environmental impact.
    4. Growth in Offshore Industries: The offshore industries are flourishing due to the rising demand for oil and gas exploration. International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates the demand for oil and gas to reach 105.7 million barrels per day (mb/d) by 2028. Such an increase in fuel increased the demand for various types of marine vessels equipped with diesel engines.

    Segments Analysis

    By Technology Type

    The market is segmented as low speed, medium speed, and high speed. 

    Low-speed technology is expected to witness a significant growth rate in the market during the forecast period owing to the utilization of low-cost fuel, growing long-voyage trade, and an increase in the adoption of merchant vessels among others.

    Factors such as a surge in thermal and oxidation stability properties, decreased cost, and reduced polluting emissions are the other considerable factors driving the market growth during the forecast period.

    On the other hand, the medium-speed marine diesel engine is also estimated to register considerable growth during the forecast period on account of high thermal efficiency and wide application base.

    Marine Diesel Engine Market Share: By Application Type

    The market is segmented as merchant, offshore, cruise & ferry, navy, and others. 

    The merchant marine diesel engine market is estimated to register strong growth owing to growing long international voyages and rapid industrialization across emerging economies during the forecast period.

    Factors such as technological improvements and ongoing investments in R&D with an emphasis on superior product design are expected to boost the segment’s growth during the forecast period.

    On the other hand, the offshore application segment is estimated to witness a significant growth rate in the market during the forecast period. The growth of the segment is attributed to the growing awareness about environmental sustainability and the increase in retrofitting activities of existing ships to install clean engines along with a reduction in carbon emission.

    Also, the cruise & ferry application is estimated to witness constant growth due to the increase in purchasing power of consumers along with growing requirements for luxury and comfort.

    Marine Diesel Engine Market Share: By Region

    North America is estimated to account for the major share of the market with the U.S. being the growth engine of the region during the forecast period.

    Factors such as increasing incidence of retrofitting activities owing to stringent government mandates coupled with increasing tourism within the Caribbean, growing import and export activities and increase in exploration activities, and ongoing investments toward shipbuilding and booming demand for commercial vessels & battle forces are further expected to fuel the regional market growth over the forecast period.

    Europe and Asia-Pacific are also expected to offer substantial growth opportunities during the forecast period.
