The terminal management system market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The terminal management system market has seen strong growth in recent years. It will increase from $1.21 billion in 2024 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with a CAGR of 8.4%.
The growth is driven by the expansion of container shipping, heightened environmental awareness, economic pressures leading companies to optimize operations, maritime industry growth, and modernization of rail networks.
The terminal management system market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The terminal management system market is expected to experience significant growth, reaching $6.92 billion by 2029 at a CAGR of 6.7%.
Growth is driven by the need for better asset management, increasing demand for automation, safety and security concerns in logistics, and the digital transformation of terminal operations. Key trends include cloud-based platforms, artificial intelligence and machine learning for efficiency, the rise of predictive analytics, and smart container tracking.
The terminal management system market's growth is expected to be fuelled by the expanding oil and gas sector. This industry's expansion is attributed to the growing worldwide energy demand, enhancements in extraction and production methods, and substantial investments in exploration and infrastructure. A Terminal Management System (TMS) enables the oil and gas sector to optimise receipt and dispatch activities, bolster inventory management, enhance resource distribution, guarantee safety adherence, and enable real-time tracking and blending processes. For instance, as reported by the US Energy Information Administration, a US government entity, in December 2021, the daily US oil production stood at 11.7 million barrels, whereas the natural gas production (gross withdrawals) was at 120.0 billion cubic feet. By December 2022, oil production had grown to 12.1 million barrels per day, whereas natural gas production had risen to 121.1 billion cubic feet per day. As a result, the thriving oil and gas sector is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the terminal management system market.
