The first half of 2023 has defied expectations for major shipbuilders with owners continuing to pile on newbuilding orders for containerships and LNG carriers, as well as other vessel types.

For listeners interested in specific industry sectors only we have taken the Seatrade Maritime Podcast Shipping markets outlook 2023 episode and split into four mini-episodes focusing on a specific sector.

In the fourth part of our shipping market outlook series we are focusing on the outlook for the shipbuilding sector in the second half of 2023 with Maritime Strategies International (MSI) Managing Director Adam Kent.

• Is the lack of early delivery slots putting owners off ordering?
• Are dormant shipyards being reactivated to meet demand?
• What is the newbuilding ordering outlook like for the second half of 2023?
