Autonomous Ships Market Introduction and Overview

According to SPER Market Research, the Global Autonomous Ships Market is estimated to reach USD 189.96 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 7.1%.

The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Autonomous Ships Market, including market size and trends, product mix, applications, and supplier analysis. Ships that are autonomous, also referred to as crewless ships, and are equipped with technology and software that operate without the need for human interaction. Making judgements that are in line with the environment is made easier by sensors, automated navigation, propulsion and auxiliary systems, GPS trackers, and other parts found in ships. Furthermore, the largely autonomous ships are controlled and monitored by humans via off-board control centres. Furthermore, autonomous ships have their whole operations managed by modern operating systems, allowing them to make decisions and execute acts on their own.

  • February 2023: Austal USA delivered the autonomously capable EPF 13 ship to the US Navy. EPF 13 includes an automated maintenance, health monitoring, and mission readiness capability from Austal. It will allow the vessel to function without human intervention for up to 30 days when combined with the existing highly automated hull, mechanical, and electrical systems installed in EPF class vessels. 
  • August 2022: SK Shipping and Sinokor Merchant Marine have ordered an autonomous navigation solution from Avikus, a subsidiary of HD Hyundai Heavy Industries. The Avikus HiNAS 2.0 autonomous navigation technology would be deployed on 23 vessels, including container ships and LNG carriers, under the terms of the deal.
Autonomous Ships Market
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Various countries' increased investments in cutting-edge technology that is propelling market expansion. Autonomy aids in reducing at-sea crashes, working long hours without interruptions, increasing fuel efficiency, and performing mission-critical duties. Automation ships are next-generation vessels that have no staff on board. Shore engineers will monitor and control their navigation and performance from a shore operational centre using detectors, sensors, high-resolution cameras, and powerful satellite communication systems. The development of next-generation autonomous vessels in recent years has spurred the expansion of the Autonomous Ships Industry.

Increased R&D activity by prominent ship builders and system developers throughout the world for the development of fully autonomous ships represents a market potential for the autonomous ships market. Rolls-Royce and Kongsberg, for example, are creating fully autonomous ships. Both businesses are pioneering the development of autonomous ships by combining existing ship technologies with new digital technologies like as sensors and artificial intelligence.

As these ships follow satellite paths during their travels, the chances of cyber assaults increase globally. Marine vessel operators are likely to connect their ships to onshore networks in the next years. The installation of automation systems is the first step towards comprehensive vessel automation since it allows the integration of critical subsystems of marine vessels with one another via local networks. The number of components required for the autonomous marine's proper operation. The connectivity solution for each component contributes to the overall system's complex structure. These components have their own workings, which can generate a considerable amount of data at times. In the case of autonomous ships, the navigation system is dependent on third-party infrastructure such as satellite communication or terrestrial communication, which further complicates the network because the components are deployed based on the service providers' demands.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Autonomous Ships Market
The global maritime industry faced unprecedented hurdles as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. Production halts, supply chain interruptions, and crew and staff quarantine periods hampered market growth. Several cargo and passenger ships were barred from accessing the port due to the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). As a result, several merchant sailors remained on board, while ship owners paid additional fees as a result of the ship's prolonged stay in territorial waters. During the pandemic, declines in fishing tourism, cruise tourism, and leisure activities harmed the boating business. Furthermore, the epidemic had an impact on ships, compelling many sailors to retire and renew their contracts. Importing and exporting items and goods were also forbidden in order to limit the spread of new coronavirus infections.
