According to the relevant person in charge, from the perspective of orders, the shipbuilding industry has shown the following two trends: First, the volume and price of new ship orders have gradually returned to rationality. Since the financial crisis in 2008, the trading volume and transaction price of the new shipbuilding market have fallen off a cliff. Due to the global shipbuilding overcapacity, under the influence of the market, global shipbuilding enterprises have undergone two rounds of adjustment, namely bankruptcy liquidation and merger and reorganization. The number of active shipyards with orders or delivery records for ships over 10,000 tons decreased from 440 to about 180 in 2016; In 2020, affected by the epidemic and the market correction, the number of shipyards receiving orders or delivering ships fell to about 150. After the significant reduction of shipbuilding capacity, coupled with the demand for new ships has gradually returned to normal track, so the volume and transaction price of new ships have gradually returned to rationality.

Second, the market demand for new energy-saving ships and high-end ships is increasing. In recent years, with the gradual acceleration of IMO legislation on environmental protection, relevant conventions such as ballast water and sulfur discharge have come into force one after another. The introduction of these new rules and regulations has further spawned the demand for new energy-saving ships and high-end ships.

Implement the "six stability" and "six guarantees" to expand domestic advantages

In July last year, the luxury passenger rolling ship "Badji Mukhtar III" produced by Guangzhou Shipbuilding International officially set sail for the port of Algiers, the biggest feature of the ship is that the internal materials and most of the equipment to achieve domestic production.

The relevant person in charge believes that vigorously promoting the localization of ship manufacturing supporting equipment is the specific measure for the company to implement the new development pattern with the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international double cycle promoting each other, and it is the specific requirement for the implementation of the "six stability" and "six guarantees" in the "stability of the industrial chain and supply chain".

In addition, promoting the localization of supporting equipment is also an inherent demand for the company's high-quality development. On the one hand, affected by the epidemic, the after-sales service of imported equipment is easy to keep up, if the use of domestic supporting, suppliers are more guaranteed; On the other hand, domestic materials and equipment still have great advantages in cost performance. "In fact, most of the domestic materials are of very good quality, such as interior decoration materials for luxury passenger rolling boats, various kinds of hardware, lighting, in these areas, China itself has a strong advantage."
