The rise and fall of the shipbuilding industry has always been an important indicator of the economy.

In 2020, under the dual impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic and economic uncertainty, the global shipbuilding industry is in the stage of the Great Depression in the past 30 years, and the orders held by shipbuilding companies in various countries have fallen sharply.

According to data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology a few days ago, in 2020, China’s new ship orders surpassed South Korea, regaining the world’s largest number of orders after two years.

The latest data shows that in 2020, China and South Korea’s new ship orders accounted for 48.8% and 41.4% of the global share. After a lapse of two years, China returned to No. 1 in the world, South Korea ranked second, and Japan ranked third with approximately 7% of the market.

　　Sun Wei, Deputy General Manager of China State Shipbuilding Corporation:One of the important ones is that our domestic epidemic prevention and control measures are effective and effective, which strengthens shipowners’ confidence in Chinese companies. Our R&D personnel take the initiative and innovate to ensure the smoothness and communication of all aspects of communication with customers during the epidemic. Efficient.

Also benefiting from the effective prevention and control of the epidemic, Chinese shipbuilding companies have also achieved excellent results in terms of shipbuilding completion. This is currently the world’s largest 23,000 TEU dual-fuel-powered container ship. After complex tests such as conventional power sea trials and LNG gas sea trials, it will be officially delivered on Changxing Island in Shanghai at the end of 2020. This is the third container ship of the same type delivered by my country in 2020.

According to statistics, in 2020, my country’s shipbuilding completed volume and hand-held orders accounted for 43.1% and 44.7% of the world’s total, respectively, and continued to lead the international market share.

　　Li Yanqing, Secretary General of China Shipbuilding Industry Association:In 2020, China’s shipbuilding industry will rise against the trend and achieve a comprehensive breakthrough. It will achieve the world’s largest market share in terms of the three major indicators of shipbuilding completion, new ship orders, and hand-held orders. The gains have demonstrated the extremely strong resilience and solid industrial foundation of China’s shipbuilding industry.

The three indicators are an important basis for the industry to measure the scale and strength of the shipbuilding industry. The previous three indicators have always been occupied by Japan or South Korea. In 2010, China ranked first in the world for the first time, but in terms of new ship orders, it was overtaken by South Korea in 2018 and 2019.
