The U.S. takes seventh place in global exports of ships, barges, and platforms with a X% share (based on USD), following Korea (X%), China (X%), Japan (X%), Poland (X%), India (X%), and Germany (X%). In 2015, the U.S. exported X USD worth of ships, barges, and platforms, showing an X% decline from the previous year's value.

U.S. exports of ships, barges, and platforms showed mixed dynamics from 2007 to 2015. A slight decline in 2009 was followed by recovery growth over the next two years, until exports rocketed to their peak level in 2012. Exports turned downward after 2012, falling to X million USD.

In 2011, U.S. imports of ships, barges, and platforms overcame the pre-recession level of 2008. However, after several fluctuations, exports returned to the level only slightly above the levels of 2008 and 2011.

In 2015, Canada (X%), Singapore (X%), and Egypt (X%) were the main destinations of U.S. exports of ships, barges, and platforms. Singapore's share of exports increased by +X percentage points, while the shares of other major destinations showed more moderate paces of growth between 2007 and 2015.

Net US exports of ships, barges, and platforms showed significant fluctuations over the period under review. The overall trend was positive from 2007 to 2010, but a plunge in 2015 makes it impossible to track a strong upward trend.
