REPORT DESCRIPTION

In the past few years, the array of chemicals transported in bulk has significantly expanded and special varieties of ships are being extensively used to meet the need. Apart from the specialist ships designed to ship bulk chemicals by sea, transportation of bulk chemicals also requires special training for the crew involved in the entire process, starting from construction/design of the vessels to loading, storing, discharge, and tank cleaning operations. Owing to the complex characteristics of the various chemicals commonly transported in bulk through carriers, it is critical that the crew is aware of the potential risks associated with handling them. The increased focus on all these factors has led to vast research and development in the overall market for chemical tanker shipping in the past few years. The introduction of industry best practice guidelines has enriched the field of chemical tankers, ensuring the safety of those associated with the entire shipping process. The global market for the specialist ships so designed/constructed/adapted for the purpose has also witnessed significant positive developments as a result. This report presents exhaustive data about the global chemical tanker shipping market, expected to be helpful to readers working across fields such as key suppliers of liquefied chemicals, chemical transportation, chemical processing, chemical handling, and bulk chemical services.
