在双燃料动力集装箱船、油船和特种船舶市场需求飙升的推动下，今年我国船舶工业有望保持强劲增长势头。据中国船舶工业行业协会的统计数据显示，1-5月，全国承接新船订单2645万载重吨，同比增长49.5%，占全球市场的67%以上。造船完工量1647万载重吨，同比增长15%以上，占全球市场的48.1%。截至5月底，手持船舶订单11799万载重吨，同比增长15.5%，占全球近52%的市场份额。中国船舶工业行业协会秘书长李彦庆表示，最近几个月，除了集装箱船、散货船等传统船型外，国内造船企业还接到了液化天然气运输船、汽车运输船和海洋工程船舶的新船订单。

China's shipbuilding industry will likely maintain robust growth this year, driven by soaring demand for dual fuel-powered containerships, oil tankers and specialized vessels, market watchers and business executives said on Monday. Orders for new vessels, a major indicator of health of the shipbuilding industry, added up to 26.45 million dead-weight tons during the five-month period, with a global market share of more than 67 percent. In the first five months of this year, orders for new vessels placed with the country's shipyards surged 49.5 percent year-on-year, data from the Beijing-based China Association of the National Shipbuilding Industry showed. China's shipbuilding output grew by more than 15 percent year-on-year to 16.47 million DWT between January and May, accounting for more than 48 percent of the world's total, CANSI data showed. By the end of May, Chinese shipyards' holding orders totaled 117.99 million DWT, up 15.5 percent year-on-year, claiming nearly 52 percent of the world's market share. In recent months, Chinese shipyards have received new orders for not only containerships and bulk vessels but liquefied natural gas carriers, vehicle carriers and ocean engineering vessels, said Li Yanqing, secretary-general of CANSI.
