Manpower Report 2015 Full Report
This Manpower Report 2015 was withdrawn in June 2021 and replaced by the Seafarer Workforce Report 2021 Edition.
The BIMCO and ICS Manpower Updates are regarded as the most comprehensive assessment of global supply of and demand for seafarers. The 2015 report builds on updates conducted in 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005 and 2010. This report has two main purposes: to describe the current worldwide supply and demand situation for seafarers; and to make predictions about the likely position in 5-10 years time, to help the industry anticipate developments and take appropriate action.
