Abstract

This study aims to analyse the relationship between national shipping and various factors andits relevance to the blue economy. The analysis using data of 84 countries has found thestrong effect of shipping building, international trade and registration on the size of nationalfleets. In addition, all else being the same, top oil exporting countries and open registrycountries have stronger fleet than the other countries. While tourism and fisheries are knownto be important contributors to the blue economy, they do not have a significant effect onnational shipping. This could be due to the fact that relationships between these sectors haveyet been significant. The comparison of sustainable (weighted) ranking and weighted rankingsshow very significant differences between these. The former is more in favour of countrieswith a significant maritime industry.
