Synthèse

The global ship repair and maintenancemarket, estimated at $23.5 billion in 2021, is set to grow at an average annual rate of 6.5% over the decade, reaching $44.3 billion in 2031. In France, with a significant military component driven by the French Navy, whose operational maintenance budget amounts to some 1.5 billion euros, the ship repair sector is proving resilient despite economic fluctuations. Demand for ship repair and maintenance services comprises a mix of military vessels, merchant navy ships and pleasure craft, with varying requirements.

Pleasure boat production in France remains robust with a strong export market, producing 3,538 sailboats and 9,745 powerboats by 2021, which will fuel future repair needs. Aging fishing fleets also point to a potential increase in repair demand.

The French ship repair sector is largely characterized by numerous small businesses, as evidenced by the dominant presence of around 360 companies in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.

Competition and international cooperation are strategic. Fincantieri's deal in China underlines the importance of international partnerships and EU state control of the market. Regulations and subsidies shape the market, with EU approval required for major transactions and French subsidies available for innovative repair processes.

The main players operate in both civil and military segments, with Naval Group sales reaching €14.1 billion in 2021, demonstrating the scale of activity in this sector.

The changing landscape of the French ship repair and maintenance market

The ship repair and maintenance market in France is an important segment of the broader shipbuilding industry, with stable growth driven by private and military naval demand. The market, closely linked to the shipbuilding industry, has experienced its own series of fluctuations, but has regained momentum, showing a promising trajectory for future expansion. The French ship repair and maintenance market has seen moderate growth, with a peak increase of around 16% and a marginal decline in 2021. Early figures for 2022 indicate that the market should continue to grow, with January to May sales reaching almost half the previous year's total.

The French navy is driving much of this demand, with the military repair segment accounting for over 90% of the market. France's commitment to increase its national defense budget to around 2% of GDP by 2025 points to accelerating growth in this segment.

The repair and maintenance of civilian vessels, including the merchant marine and pleasure fleets, also contribute to market demand, although they represent a smaller fraction compared to military requirements. Merchant navy fleet numbers are stable, with fluctuations largely due to registrations of foreign-flagged vessels. Service vessels show a downward trend, while figures for France's fishing fleet reflect thousands of boats, many of which are aging and due to be replaced in the coming years.

The yachting industry, in particular, has seen a sharp increase in infrastructure for this market. Yacht building has been robust, with a large percentage of production destined for export, leaving a substantial number for the French domestic market. These vessels will eventually contribute to the repair and maintenance industry, increasing demand over time. Despite a slight upward trend in the number of ship renovation and maintenance companies, the market remains structured, with price variations depending on the volume of vessels and services required. In particular, the Port of Concarneau has detailed its pricing structure, with the ascent and descent of the ship into the dry dock being billed according to the volume of the vessel, and the service being billed according to the size of the vessel.1,200 per maneuver, with daily dry dock rates adjusted accordingly.

Strategic cooperation agreements between facilities, such as that between Fincantieri and Huarun Dadong Dockyard, testify to a dynamic market. In addition, state and European Union controls provide strategic and political oversight, influencing market dynamics, particularly in the military sector.

1.1 Definition and scope of the study

Ship repair encompasses all industrial activities involved in repairing a vessel following technical damage or damage caused by an accident (collision, grounding, etc.). The sector also encompasses maintenance activities, which are necessary on boats that have become too worn. This wear and tear is generally natural, due to corrosion, friction with water or the accumulation of molluscs on the hull.

The ship repair and maintenance sector is closely linked to the shipbuilding industry, whose economic activity has seen many ups and downs in recent years. at the end of the 1990s and before the 2008 crisis, orders were at their peak. However, successive crises have taken their toll on the sector. Nevertheless, orders rebounded in 2013, as GICAN explains. This augurs well for future growth in the sector.
