The global liquid chemical shipping market size was USD 8719.2 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 14348.33 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecasting period.

Chemical tankers are specifically created for carrying liquid chemicals, liquid chemical shipping is a cargo ship. A variety of chemicals are transported by these tankers. The International Bulk Chemical Code (IBC Code), which categorises these tankers into three kinds (ST1, ST2, and ST3), must be followed by these chemical tankers to operate. Toxic or combustible hazardous substances are transported using ST1 tankers. When shipping chemicals in ST2, serious safety measures must be followed. Chemicals with moderate amounts of contamination must be transported using ST3 tankers. While being shipped throughout the world, liquid chemicals are kept in a liquid state to preserve their consistency. The expansion of the worldwide liquid chemical transportation market is primarily being driven by the chemical industry's ongoing development.

Due to their potential industrial applications, organic compounds have a wide range of applications and generate a large amount of interest. Over the anticipated period, the industry is expected to expand due to significant commercial activity and inexpensive charter rates for liquid chemical shipping. Fleet owners are developing cutting-edge technical solutions to support the liquid chemical shipping tankers around the world. Due to its hazardous nature and unique properties, tanker coating is vital in the shipping of liquid chemicals.

COVID-19 Impact: Standstill in International Trade to Hamper Market Growth

The sudden spike in CAGR is attributed to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over. The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with surface liquid chemical shipping market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused several challenges. The share of chemical companies has fallen precipitously, and their future depends on how exposed they are to COVID-19 (and how the consequences of the oil price will affect them) as well as their financial stability. Positively impacted cash-rich businesses may be better positioned to operate countercyclically and emerge stronger. Financially precarious businesses with weak inventories run the risk of becoming distressed and failing to survive in the size and shape of the liquid chemical shipping market as it currently exists.
