MARINE ENGINEERING MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2025 to 2032)

The Global Marine Engineering Market is estimated to be valued at USD 175.68  Bn in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 271.40 Bn by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4% from 2025 to 2032.

Marine engineering is a field that deals with engineering principles related to the development, design, construction, manufacturing, operation and maintenance of vessels and structures in a marine environment. Some of the key aspects of marine engineering include hull design, propulsion systems, marine auxiliary machinery, shipbuilding and material selection. With increasing globalization and trade, the demand for shipping and cargo transportation has been rising steadily. This has fueled growth in the marine engineering sector with more advanced vessels being developed to transport people and freight across the world efficiently.

Market Dynamics:

The global marine engineering market is driven by growing maritime trade volumes worldwide. Rising demand for energy and bulk commodities has increased the requirements for specialized cargo and crude oil tankers which need sophisticated marine engineering solutions. Furthermore, expanding offshore exploration and production activities have augmented the need for offshore support vessels, drilling rigs and floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) units.However, volatile energy prices hamper investments in new offshore projects. Additionally, tightening environmental regulations pose challenges for the sector in developing low-emission ship designs and engines. Meanwhile, growing emphasis on automated and unmanned vessel technologies present an opportunity for marine engineers to develop advanced autonomy systems.
