Shipping Statistics and Market Review

摘要

The ISL "total passenger" fleet (ships of 300 gt and over) regroups very different segments such as cruise shipping, pure passenger ships/ferries, ro-pax units (car ferries) and conventional cargo/passenger ships. Table 1 indicates the composition of the total passenger fleet at the start of 2016. Besides 1,675 "pure" passenger/cruise vessels, this fleet segment also comprises 2,641 passenger/ro-ro cargo ships (including ro-pax car ferries and conventional passenger/cargo ships). In terms of tonnage, the cruise vessels accounted for half of the gt capacity, whereas by number, ro-pax/car ferries (56 %) and pure passenger ferries (30 %) dominate.
