Gaseous cargo will showcase growth in the barge transportation market due to rising international trade of gaseous & non-renewable products such as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), gaseous chemicals, CNG, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), etc. Moreover, owing to leakage concerns associated with the gas carrying pipelines, the demand for barge transportation systems is increasing significantly. Gases are majorly transported using tank barges to ensure the maximum safety and transportation efficiency.

Open barges are majorly used for non-perishable commodities such as iron ore and coal. Deck barges are the open rectangular barges having flat surface decks. These barges lack walls and cannot be used for goods that require containerization. These barges are increasingly used to carry heavy equipment loads. The cost-effectiveness of the open fleet as compared to the counterparts is anticipated to support the open barge transportation market growth over the forecast timeline.

Increasing manufacturing activities, particularly in Asia Pacific countries, are driving the growth of secondary raw materials and the waste sector. Manufacturers tend to manage the raw material inventory level in bulk quantities to avoid the price volatility of the product. Barge transportation is observed as an important way of transporting bulk raw materials and wastes owing to its cost-effectiveness and bulk carrying capabilities.
