Historically the sector has displayed steady growth through to 2004, from €2.3 billion<br />

in 1999.The forecast is for growth, averaging 2.7% leading to a value of €3.1 billion<br />

in 2009.<br />

SHIPBUILDING<br />

Page 107 (€38bn in 2004, €30bn in 2009)<br />

The shipbuilding industry was valued at €38 billion in 2004, with Europe’s<br />

€13 billion share being significant, some one third of this.<br />

1,430 shipbuilders and repairers are listed worldwide, but there is a history of overinvestment<br />

and subsidy. As a result, Asia dominates the ‘bulk’ vessel market, but the<br />

emergence of China as a shipbuilder now threatens the main players, Japan & Korea.<br />

Europe is associated with higher tech, low volume vessels (cruise, offshore, etc), but<br />

the high value of the Euro has major impact on EU shipbuilders and their suppliers.<br />

Ireland is not a significant player.<br />

From a value of €31.9 billion in 1999 the sector peaked (in Euro terms) in 2002 at<br />

€40 billion.This peak, we believe, will be followed by a return to long-term lower<br />

growth trends, with a market value similar at the end of the forecast period, to the<br />

start of the historic period.Therefore, the forecast annual growth rate for 2005–2009<br />

in Euros is –4%, representing the return to previous levels of activity.<br />

This is a very large market (€73 billion in 2004) and although other smaller sectors<br />

could also be included there are two main segments:<br />

• Shipbuilding, where items such as propulsion systems & machinery total €21bn<br />

with over 5,000 suppliers listed worldwide.<br />

• Oil & gas sector, where capital items such as platforms, pipelines, subsea equipment,<br />

etc. total €49bn and over 6,000 suppliers are listed worldwide.<br />

The market was worth €64 billion in 1999. Since then, the sector has displayed slight<br />

fluctuations, but a general trend of growth, with forecast value of €70 billion for
