120 MARINE INDUSTRIES GLOBAL MARKET ANALYSIS • Delivering to the industrial sector development leads that are needed and for which they are willing to pay. • Educating and training the people to make this possible. • Promoting, marketing and positioning sector in a distinctive way. 23.4 THE LONG-TERM – 2010 ONWARDS In 2002, Ernst & Young reported that there were 4,324 biotechnology companies worldwide with 188,703 employees, R&D expenditure of $16.4 billion and revenues of $35.8 billion. $25 billion of this was generated by US companies. 79 ‘Invest in Japan’ stated that the Japanese biotechnology market was worth $10.2bn in 2002. 80 These numbers seem disproportionate, but do serve to illustrate the size of the industry. Considering that the oceans contain 80% of living organisms, it is reasonable to suggest that the long-term potential for marine biology must greatly exceed conventional land-based biotechnology revenue values. 79 ‘Refocus:The European Perspective Global Biotechnology Report 2004’.

Seafarer training – 400,000 officers and 825,000 ratings are employed worldwide with 60% of the latter being from the Asia Pacific region.There has been a 27% oversupply of ratings although there are doubts about the extent to which large numbers of these ratings are qualified for international service. 81 The majority of ratings are recruited from developing countries, especially the Far East.The Philippines alone provides almost 20% of the global maritime workforce. The Philippines is the largest supplier of seafarers with some 180,000 or 28.5% of the total maritime population of 632,000 on board vessels worldwide. Russia is second with 7.3%. Currently, 418 ‘maritime schools’ are listed worldwide. In 2000, there were 121 maritime schools in the Philippines rapidly resulting in an over-supply of trained seafarers. However, in 2004 the number of schools was down to 76, twenty of which will be phased-out in the next two years, after their last students have graduated. Of the 500,000 registered Filipino seafarers, enough to man most of the vessels afloat around the world, more than 300,000 are unemployed. However, other countries are also adding training capacity – South Africa opened a 150 student training academy in 2003 offering two three-year courses. Amongst training now being used are tools such as bridge and engine room simulators. Specialised courses for the fishing industry are offered by some establishments. In 2003, 1,681 attendances were registered in Ireland at the country’s BIM Training Centres. China and India are also significant maritime labour supply nations. Other major labour supply countries include Greece, Japan, Norway, Russia and the UK. There is regarded to be a 4% undersupply of officers which is expected to rise to 12% by 2010.The OECD countries remain the most important source for officers, but growing numbers of officers are now recruited from the Far East and Eastern Europe and it is expected that this trend will accelerate as the ageing OECD officer group retires. Note:As training may be provided in one country to meet demand from other countries, it is difficult to segment the ‘market’ by regions.This is particularly the case for the shipping industry and to a lesser extent higher education. 81 http://www.marisec.org/resources/2000Manpowerupdate .htm
