The APAC region is greatly affected by COVID-19, the country also homes the largest population across the world, thereby imposing greater risk on many individuals; it is also a world leader of many global brands. According to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the pandemic has also affected other major economies outside China, such as the large India, Australia, and Japan, and is experiencing downward inflation. The sudden closedown of all economic activities across all countries in the region has highly impacted the marine and oil & gas industry. The APAC region constitutes the world’s two most populated countries as well as prominent oil & gas producing countries across the Asian region. China virtually imposed strict lockdown and social isolation, which stopped manufacturing activities, thus the oil & gas construction activities across the Chinese region plummeted significantly and resulted in weak demand for LNG Storage tank. Similarly, India also imposed a nationwide lockdown to control the growing number of COVID-19 cases. Subsequently, the lockdown and disruption of various manufacturing activities contributed significantly to reduced activities in oil & gas sector. The shutdown of various plants and halts in the onshore projects disrupted various major projects in the region. Thus, the overall decline of manufacturing and transportation activities in oil & gas industries collectively reduced the demand for LNG storage tanks across the Asian countries during the early months of the 2020 due to the outbreak of virus in respective countries.
