Saudi Arabia Marine Equipment Market Trends:

Expansion of Port Connectivity Fuels Equipment Demand

Saudi Arabia's marine equipment market is experiencing strong growth, primarily driven by the development of port connectivity and the increase in global trade volumes. With Saudi Arabia cementing its status as a key maritime logistics hub, demand for high-tech equipment to enhance cargo handling capacity is on the rise. For instance, in May 2025, the Saudi Ports Authority, "Mawani," introduced Evergreen's ARPG shipping service to King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam, connecting it with nine key international ports. This strategic addition significantly enhances Saudi Arabia's maritime connectivity and streamlines the efficiency of trade routes connecting the Kingdom with global markets. The launching of the ARPG service raises the need for advanced marine equipment, such as cranes, cargo handling systems, and port infrastructure development, to handle the increased flow of cargo. As shipping routes worldwide become increasingly integrated, Saudi ports must enhance their capacity to handle higher volumes of larger, more frequent shipments. Such a transition towards increased efficiency and capacity is evident in the form of growing investments in advanced port equipment, including automated cranes and robotics, to optimize operations and minimize operational downtime. These developments are also expected to shape the market, creating new opportunities for innovation and growth within the sector.

Investments in Automation and Sustainability

A significant trend shaping the Saudi Arabia marine equipment market growth is the increased emphasis on automation and sustainability, reflecting the Kingdom’s commitment to modernizing its ports and achieving environmental goals. Aligned with this trend, in June 2024, Saudi Global Ports (SGP) advanced its Phase 1 expansion at King Abdulaziz Port by adding three automated quay cranes and three hybrid rubber-tired gantry cranes (RTGs). These cranes, coupled with the procurement of 80 electric prime movers, highlight SGP’s strategic focus on enhancing operational efficiency while prioritizing sustainability. This move aligns with the Kingdom’s broader Vision 2030 objectives of reducing carbon emissions and promoting a green economy. The new equipment represents a significant shift towards cleaner, more efficient port operations. The hybrid RTGs and electric prime movers contribute to a reduction in the carbon footprint of the port's operations, ensuring that SGP remains at the forefront of environmentally responsible logistics. As automation becomes more prevalent in global ports, Saudi Arabia’s investments in high-tech, eco-friendly equipment are accelerating its competitive edge. Additionally, these investments in automation improve the safety and productivity of port operations, minimizing human error and optimizing the throughput of cargo. The adoption of sustainable and automated solutions is expected to continue driving growth in the Saudi Arabia Marine Equipment market, ensuring that the Kingdom’s ports remain highly efficient and environmentally responsible.
