( BW)(RESEARCH-AND-MARKETS)(.) Research and Markets: U.S. Shipbuilding and Repair Report 2010 - This
Industry Generates a Combined Annual Revenue of about $17 Billion
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/11aa87/shipbuilding_and_r)
has announced the addition of the "Shipbuilding
and Repair" report to their offering.
The US shipbuilding and repair industry includes about 600 companies
with combined annual revenue of about $17 billion. Major companies
include the shipbuilding divisions of General Dynamics and Northrop
Grumman, both of which are US military contractors. Other top companies
include BAE Systems Ship Repair, Bollinger Shipyards, the inland barge
division of Trinity Industries, and VT Halter Marine (a subsidiary of
Singapore Technologies Engineering). The industry is highly
concentrated: the largest 50 companies account for about 90 percent of
revenue.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Demand for military shipbuilding is largely determined by the US
military budget, and to a much lesser extent, the military spending of
foreign governments allied with the US. Commercial shipbuilding demand
is determined by international and domestic trade, the health of the
global economy, and rate of fleet replacement due to age or
obsolescence. Small companies usually specialize in building and repair
of small commercial vessels. Large companies tend to offer a wide range
of building and repair services for both commercial and military
vessels, and enjoy economies of scale in purchasing, design, and
manufacturing.
PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY
Revenue is generated by the design and construction of new commercial
and military vessels, and the renovation and repair of existing ships.
Commercial products include tankers, passenger vessels and cruise ships,
barges and bulk carrier barges, and cargo and container vessels.
