Shipbuilding market developments, first semester 2022
Monitoring developments in ship supply, demand, prices and costs
The latest OECD analysis of demand and supply in the shipbuilding industry finds significant
excess capacity in the sector. Reducing this excess capacity will depend on the willingness
and ability of yards to reduce existing capacity and to refrain from new capital investments.
The report also presents a literature review of factors that influence newbuilding
ship prices, developments affecting ship prices, and a description of newbuilding
prices of major ship types and ship size categories. This report is part of a regular
monitoring exercise from the OECD Council Working Party on shipbuilding (WP6) of the
global shipbuilding market.
