Valuation of the Liner Shipping Industry
Economic Contribution and Liner Industry Operations
December 2009
Executive Summary
Liner shipping is the service of transporting goods by means of
high capacity, oceangoing ships that transit regular routes on fixed
schedules. The liner shipping industry is the primary conduit of
world trade and an increasingly important part of the maritime
industry. Liner shipping carries the majority of the world's
ocean-borne trade in value terms and facilitates a significant
portion of the merchandise trade of the world. The industry has
contributed to advances in the standard of living of most of the
world's population in the last 35 years, as the gains from trade
through advancing global commerce were enabled by the reliable,
efficient and relatively low-cost transportation provided by the
industry.
Quantifying the significance of the liner shipping industry can
be done using many metrics. Valuable perspectives on the liner
industry include how much of world trade is handled by the liner
industry; the employment, investment, and value added the industry
contributes to the world economy, and the operational
characteristics of the industry in providing services globally.
WHAT IS THE LINER SHIPPING INDUSTRY?
The liner shipping industry is the portion of the maritime
industry that includes all operations and related infrastructure
involved in scheduled ocean-borne shipping. It consists of liner
vessels and the people working on-board these vessels, ports,
shipbuilding operations, longshore dock workers, shipbuilders, and
all other on-shore support staff. Liner shippers transport most of
the high unit-value consumer and intermediate goods, including ocean
containerized cargo, vehicles, and other mobile machinery. The
industry operates on all oceans and many of the navigable inland
waterways world-wide, benefitting consumers and exporters globally.
KEY FINDINGS
This report provides measures that describe the important role
of the liner shipping industry in the world and for key world
regions. Among the findings are:
-
The value of the liner industry operations and shipbuilding in 2007
is estimated to be $436.3 billion, generating 13.5 million direct
and related jobs.
-
The liner industry transported about 60% of the total value of
global seaborne trade of US$7.7 trillion in 2007.
-
The industry has invested in more than 7,000 vessels to provide
these services, with approximately another 1,400 on order.
-
Over $235 billion have been spent on new vessels by the industry.
-
Throughput at the top 20 global ports reached almost 250 million TEU
in 2008.
-
In 2008, the global container fleet consisted of 17.8 million
containers, which cost the industry over $80 billion.
-
In 2009, on average, liner ships made 10,000 port calls around the
world each week.
-
In mid-2007, the liner industry operated more than 400 scheduled
services serving intercontinentalroute.
- Introduction
-
- The liner industry is a crucial segment of the global economy
and contributes significantly to world economic output. The industry
is broadly defined as the operations and underlying infrastructure
involved in scheduled ocean-borne shipping. As such, it consists of
a variety of components with significant economic impact, including:
-
Liner operating companies
-
Liner vessels
-
Ports of Call
-
Shipbuilding operations
-

- Liner operating companies generally transport high-value
consumer and intermediate goods, including all seaborne
containerized cargo, automobiles, and other machinery. As a result,
the industry has a profound effect on consumers and exporters. In
2007, the industry carried almost 60% of the total value of the
world's seaborne commodities on more than 7,000 registered vessels.1
-
- The industry is especially significant to the economies of the
European Union and South Korea in terms of shipbuilding and to the
European Union, China, United States, and the Americas in its
economic contribution from transport operations. Globally, the
industry was directly or indirectly responsible for over $436.3
billion in output and 13.5 millions jobs in 2007.
-
- PURPOSE OF REPORT
-
- This report was commissioned by the World Shipping Council in
order to better understand the value and size of the liner shipping
industry and its contribution to global trade and national
economies. The estimates presented in this report are an initial
effort using readily available data from various IHS companies for
valuing and sizing the industry. The majority of the data presented
here is from 2007, the most recent year for which economic and trade
data is complete. This year also presents the size and impact of the
industry prior to the current global recession and is thus
indicative of future operations.
-
- METHODOLOGY AND DATA SOURCES
-
- The primary information presented in this report is derived from
three IHS data sources, described in greater detail in the body of
this report:
-
- IHS Global Insight World Trade Service (WTS): used
to estimate the trade impact of the liner industry.
- IHS Global Insight World Industry Service (WIS):
used to estimate the economic and employment impact of the liner
industry. A detailed explanation of the WIS methodology is available
in Appendix B.
- IHS Lloyd's Register - Fairplay Research (LRF):
used for determining the size of the global liner fleet, its
capacity and operating statistics. LRF maintains a comprehensive
ongoing registry of all seagoing vessels of 100 gross tons or larger
and tracks their operations on an ongoing basis.
- Where enough geographic detail was available, economic, trade
and operating metrics were aggregated by region. The WTS regional
trade aggregations are presented in Appendix A.
-
- These three databases were supplemented with data obtained from
research of websites and annual reports of liner industry
participants including liner vessel operators and service providers,
ports and port authorities, terminal operators, and equipment
manufacturers. Consulting and other research reports were also
reviewed. For a full list of reviewed sources please see Appendix C.
-
- Economic Valuation of the Liner
Industry
-
- The most common measures of the value of an industry in the
economy are the value of output produced by the sector and the
associated employment provided by this activity. These are commonly
measured through the value of the output of the companies in the
industry and the number of workers they employ. This section reviews
