아지무스 트러스터 시장 : 현황 분석과 예측(2024-2032년)

An azimuth thruster is a type of propulsion system used in ships and vessels, which combines the functions of a propeller and a rudder into a single unit. This compact, 360-degree rotating system allows for greater manoeuvrability, improved efficiency, and reduced emissions. The increasing focus on environmental sustainability is a major driver of the azimuth thruster market. As governments and organizations around the world implement stricter regulations to reduce emissions and minimize the ecological impact of maritime operations, shipbuilders and operators are turning to azimuth thrusters as a more environmentally friendly alternative.

The Azimuth Thruster Market is expected to grow at a robust CAGR of 1.63 % during the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for tugboats, offshore support vessels, ferries and freighters, and other applications across the globe. Additionally, the expansion of offshore oil and gas exploration activities, which require dynamic positioning capabilities provided by azimuth thrusters, is a major driver. These thrusters are essential for maintaining the stability and position of offshore vessels in challenging sea conditions. For instance, In January 2023, Rolls-Royce completed the acquisition of Veth Propulsion, a Dutch manufacturer of marine propulsion systems. This acquisition aimed to enhance Rolls-Royce's product portfolio and strengthen its position in the marine propulsion market.

Based on the power rating, the market is segmented into Less than 1500KW, between 1500KW and 3000K, and more than 3000KW. The 1500KW and 3500KW segment is forecasted to hold a dominating market share because this segment is the mid-range powerhouse of the azimuth thruster's market. This segment is characterized by medium-sized azimuth thrusters, which are suitable for a wide range of vessels, including offshore support vessels, ferries, and freighters. This segment is the backbone of the market, providing a balance between power output and efficiency.

Based on the application, the market is segmented into offshore, cruise ships and ferries, yachts and recreational boats, tugboats and workboats, and commercial and naval ships. Amongst these, the cruise ships and ferries segment will account for the significant global azimuth thruster market share in the forecasted period. The growing affluence of the global population, coupled with a desire for unique and memorable travel experiences, has fueled the demand for cruise vacations. Consumers are increasingly seeking out luxurious, all-inclusive experiences that offer a seamless and enjoyable journey. Moreover, major cruise line operators have been investing heavily in expanding their fleet and diversifying their itineraries to cater to a wider range of travelers.

Based on propulsion system, the market is segmented into diesel-electric, diesel-mechanical, and hybrid. The diesel-electric propulsion systems hold the dominant share in the azimuth thruster's market. This is due to the increasing demand for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions, as well as the growing adoption of diesel-electric systems in commercial vessels and ocean-going ships.

Based on thruster type, the market is segmented into rotating azimuth thrusters and fixed azimuth thrusters. The rotating azimuth thrusters accounted for the significant growth of the global azimuth thruster market in 2023. Azimuth thrusters, capable of rotating 360 degrees, are a crucial component of dynamic positioning (DP) systems. They provide the necessary thrust for position and heading control, allowing vessels to maintain their position and orientation in harsh marine environments. Rotating azimuth thrusters are known for their ability to develop thrust in any direction, making them an essential component of modern marine vessels.

For a better understanding of the market adoption of the azimuth thruster industry, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, and the Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, UK, France, Italy, Spain, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India and Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. The European region holds a significant share of the global azimuth thrusters' market which can be attributed to a confluence of factors, including the region's robust shipbuilding industry, its emphasis on sustainability and environmental regulations, and the widespread adoption of advanced marine technologies. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the European azimuth thrusters' market has demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability. The region's shipbuilders and maritime operators have continued to prioritize the incorporation of these cutting-edge propulsion systems, recognizing their unparalleled benefits in terms of maneuverability, fuel efficiency, and environmental compliance.

Some major players operating in the market include Siemens AG, Rolls-Royce Holdings plc, Wartsila Corporation, Schottel GmbH, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., ABB Ltd., Brunvoll AS, Voith Group, Caterpillar Inc., and Teignbridge Propellers International Ltd.
