Description

Global Deep-Sea, Coastal & Inland Water Transportation

The Global Deep-Sea, Coastal and Inland Water Transportation industry has flourished thanks to expanding global per capita incomes and heightened production activity in developed economies over the past five years. Despite an initial decline in 2020 amid pandemic-related interruptions in trade, a swift recovery in shipping demand and record shipping rates in 2021 bolstered ocean transporters' recovery. Robust manufacturing activity in China, which persisted throughout COVID-19, helped boost profit for global maritime transporters and mitigate revenue declines in 2020. China's dominance and pandemic rebounds have pushed revenue up at a CAGR of 7.8% over the past five years, with revenue projected to reach $1.2 trillion in 2023. Still, a temporary dip in global investor confidence will lead to a 1.1% decline in revenue in 2023.

Operators in this industry provide deep-sea, coastal and inland water transportation. Deep-sea and coastal water transportation includes the movement of passengers and freight over major waterways, both scheduled and unscheduled. Inland water transportation includes the movement of passengers or freight via rivers, canals, lakes and waterways, including inside harbors. The industry excludes marine operations such as port operations and stevedoring.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
