Shipyards and building - a vital industry around the world?

Shipyards and dockyards are a vital industry in many countries, employing tens of thousands of workers around the globe. South Korea has the largest shipbuilding industry in the world, and there is a significant shipbuilding industry in Germany, Poland, Japan, China, and Australia. Shipyards today build a variety of different types of ships, including cargo ships, oil tankers, military vessels, and yachts. Hyundai Heavy Industries of South Korea is the largest shipbuilding company in the world, producing about 10% of the total tonnage produced in the world. South Korea dominates the world shipbuilding industry; it has a market share of 50% and produces more ships than the rest of the world combined. The world’s largest shipyard is owned by Hyundai Heavy Industries in Ulsan, South Korea. Hyundai Heavy Industries produces a wide array of ships, including tankers, bulk carriers, and gas carriers. Other major South Korean shipbuilders include Samsung Heavy Industries, Hanjin Heavy Industries, and Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering. China is the second largest shipbuilding nation in the world, producing abou 35% of world output in 2008. Chinese shipbuilders mainly compete on price, and dominate the market for basic vessels. While the Chinese shipbuilders cannot match the skill of the South Koreans in building more sophisticated vessels, China continues to gain market share and one day may become the largest shipbuilding nation. European shipbuilders rank third in world output, with about 6% of the world market. Shipbuilding has declined in Europe in the last century as production has moved to lower cost locations in developing nations. Shipbuilding has also declined drastically in Japan. Japan today produces about 3.7% of the world’s shipbuilding production. Shipbuilding was an important industry in Japan during its industrializing phase beginning in the late 19th century, and was an important export industry immediately after World War II as Japan rebuilt its economy. But just as in Europe, production began to move away from Japan in the last couple of decades to lower cost production bases in South Korea and China. Japan has fallen from the world largest shipbuilder immediately after World War II to its present position of having its shipbuilding production dwarfed by both South Korea and China. Production of ships in the United States is negligible, with most production concentrated in private shipyards building either ships for the military or other highly specialized designs.
