Maritime Census

As part of continuous efforts to support the development of Maritime Singapore, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) has been conducting annual industry surveys under the Statistics Act 1973 (“Statistics Act”) from 2022 to collect timely statistics on the maritime industry’s activities, technology, sustainability and manpower developments. 
 
Aggregated statistics compiled from the collected data will be used to assist in policy making and development of programmes to benefit the maritime community.
 
The Maritime Census will cover the following sectors:
  • Ship Owning/Operating
  • Ship Agencies
  • Ship Management
  • Ship Bunkering
  • Harbour Craft & Pleasure Craft
  • Ship Chandlers
  • Port Operations
  • Ship Broking
  • Classification Societies & Marine Surveying
  • Maritime Technology

From 2023, the Maritime Census has adopted a sampling approach that ensures representative coverage and minimises respondent burden.

Maritime Census 2025 is now closed.
Thank you to everyone who participated.
