Global Floating LNG Power Vessel Market to 2023 - High Operating Cost Associated With Transportation, Logistics, & Accessibility Issues Restraining Market Growth

DUBLIN, Sept 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Floating LNG Power Vessel Market by Component (Power Generation System and Power Distribution System), Power Output (Up to 72 MW, 72 MW-400 MW, Above 400 MW), Vessel Type (Power Barge and Power Ship), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global floating LNG power vessel market is projected to reach a market size of USD 931.6 million by 2023 from an estimated USD 860.1 million in 2018, at a CAGR of 1.61%.

This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for power, lack of power infrastructure, and added benefits over land-based power plants.

The report segments the floating LNG power vessel market, by vessel type, into power barge and power ship. The power ship segment is expected to hold the largest market share by 2023. The power ship is generally used in the energy leasing market for short- and mid-term contracts because of its self-propelling property. Karadeniz Holding (Turkey) dominates the supply of power ships in the market. Most of the projects use power between 100 MW and 150 MW and run on liquid fuel or natural gas, which are expected to witness high growth in the market.

The floating LNG power vessel market, by component, is segmented into the power generation system and power distribution system. The power generation system segment is expected to dominate the floating LNG power vessel market by 2023. It is further classified into gas turbine & IC engine and steam turbine & generator. Gas turbine & IC engine are the two key components in the floating power generation system market. The gas engine technologies can be connected to the existing gas pipeline system to avoid diesel fuel supply issues that occur during natural calamities, whereas IC engines are used in floating LNG power applications with a power output between 5.0 MW and 20.0 MW.

In this report, the floating LNG power vessel market has been analyzed with respect to 4 regions, namely, North America, the Middle East & Africa, Asia Pacific, and the RoW. The Asia Pacific market is estimated to be the largest floating LNG power vessel market from 2018 to 2023. The growth of population in the Asia Pacific region has increased the demand for electricity, which is one of the major factors driving the floating LNG power vessel market. Also, the governments of several countries are spending heavily to meet the increased demand for power.

For instance, Karpowership, one of the leading players in the power ship market, was awarded a contract by Myanmar Electric Power Generation Enterprise to provide an FPP in Rangoon, Myanmar. Such activities are expected to drive the floating LNG power vessel market in the region.

Floating LNG Power Vessel Market

The high capital cost associated with the operations, maintenance, transportation, and logistics, price disparity across regional markets, and increasing focus on renewable energy could act as restraints for the floating LNG power vessel market. The leading players in the floating LNG power vessel market include Siemens AG (Germany), MAN Diesel & Turbo SE (Germany), Wrtsil Corporation (Finland), General Electric Company (US), and Caterpillar Inc. (US). Contracts & agreements is the most commonly adopted strategy by the top players. It is followed by new product launches and partnerships, collaborations, alliances, and joint ventures.
