The future of project logistics in IMEA

At the event, we had insightful conversations with industry leaders on project logistics trends in India, Middle East, and Africa (IMEA), and how to handle them effectively. Here are the key takeaways.

The changing face of project logistics

Project logistics is sensitive to both freight rates and political factors. Geopolitical risks, disruptions, and changing tariffs are nothing new in the region. The ongoing issues at Bab al-Mandab forcing many vessels to reroute around the Cape of Good Hope, and the Red Sea route becoming inaccessible are just a few recent examples. And in 2025 too, trade is set to change drastically, not just for import and export, but also for global investments.
In 2023, energy investments in the region were primarily in wind energy. Now, there’s an effort to diversify, with nuclear power expected to become more prominent in 2025.

Overall, the project outlook in IMEA is promising, with significant infrastructure projects underway, such as new airports in Africa, ports in India, and petrochemical plants in Saudi Arabia. Advanced modelling and simulation, including digital twin technologies, will remain crucial as project logistics becomes more complex.

Insights from our expert

In the strategic panel discussion held at the event, Paul Smith, Regional Head of Maersk Project Logistics, IMEA, highlighted that disruption in our industry is the new norm, therefore integrated logistics solutions are essential. And Maersk Project Logistics can be a good fit for growing your business in IMEA.

It's crucial for us to prove our concept. We need to show our customers that while MPL is new to projects, it's driven by industry veterans. Over the past two years, I've focused on ensuring we have the best people in the right positions.
