The concept of digital shipyard is typically attributed to the upgradation of shipyards with the adoption of Industry 4.0 capabilities, such as “Cyber-Physical Systems” (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) to evolve shipyards for the modern era. By combining the Internet of Things (IoT) with cyber-physical systems (CPS), shipbuilders can produce virtual models in a fraction of the time. These are used to test, modify, and improve designs before physical production commences. Thus, many major shipbuilders in the commercial and defense sectors are adopting a combination of Industry 4.0 technologies to create a digital shipyard for the future. For instance, in December 2020, Pemamek OY received a contract from Babcock International Group, which is a developer of aerospace and defense solutions, to supply PEMA welding and production lines for its shipbuilding site at Rosyth, Scotland. This allowed Babcock to raise the level of automation at its plant and also increased its welding and handling capabilities, which improved the manufacturing quality of ship structures.

In addition, the digital shipyard market has witnessed significant growth in recent years, owing to increase in investments by shipyard enterprises and noteworthy increase in industrialization and globalization. Governments and international regulatory authorities across the globe are implementing regulations to lower the emission of carbon, SOx, and NOx in the shipping industry. Furthermore, companies operating in the market have adopted partnerships, product launches, and agreements to increase their market share and expand their geographical presence. For instance, in September 2021, Kranendonk Production Systems BV signed an agreement with Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. to deliver thin plate flat assembly line section that automated the welding process for large cruise ships. This led to automatic seamless welding operations along with high welding quality and efficient welding process.

Increase in demand for cargo ships due to increased maritime trade, rise in environmental concerns globally to lower the carbon footprint generated in the shipping industry, and rise in adoption of digital twin technology supplement the growth of the digital shipyard market. However, high cost of digitalization and training cost products and complexity associated with the systems are expected to hamper the growth of the market. In addition, rising implementation of robot technology in the shipbuilding industry and increasing use of industrial internet of things (IIoT) are expected to create ample opportunities for the key players operating in the market.

𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐈𝐃-19 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬:

The COVID-19 crisis is creating uncertainty in the digital shipyard market. Governments of different regions have already announced total lockdown and temporarily shut down industries, thereby adversely affecting the overall production and sales. Countries around the globe have posed stringent restrictions ranging from days to months of lockdown periods. Owing to this pandemic, many businesses are halted and are waiting for the market conditions to improve. Unlike other industries, the shipping industry also suffered due to the COVID-19 disease. Shipyards are forced to stop all ship building operations due to government-imposed lockdown in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Digitalization projects of shipyards are put on hold due to lack of workforce owing to the travel restrictions imposed by the governments to control the COVID-19 outbreak.

In addition, naval ship building projects, such as submarine and destroyers are prone to delay due to delay in procurement of state-of-art equipment & components essential for such naval vessels, since countries are witnessing financial globally during COVID-19 scenario. Hence, due to decreased demand for marine transport and trade, the new ships orders have been cancelled. Cruise ships are the most profitable section of shipbuilding in European countries. However, due to drop in sea passenger travel during COVID-19 outbreak, the manufacturing & travelling of cruise ships were tied & moored. However, the pandemic has encouraged shipping companies to set up digital technologies and remote working for fleet optimization and continuation of the businesses. This action, on the other hand, is expected to be a digitalization catalyst, resulting in increased potential for advanced automated technologies in shipbuilding industry, as the demand has surged in response to the labor shortage that arose in pandemic.
