Automated technology and robotic systems are as big a part of modern shipbuilding as many other manufacturing industries. Robots, carrying out welding, blasting, heavy lifting and other tasks, are helping to plug the labour gap at shipyards, while sparing their human colleagues the most dangerous and thankless tasks.

Traditionally, the shipbuilding industry has relied on the labour of a large pool of skilled workers, who faced the prospect of long hours and demanding tasks such as welding, cutting and painting to get large vessels launched. Major shipbuilders have risen to prominence on the backs of these workers, whether in the ageing historic shipyards of Europe or their highly efficient rivals in South Korea, Japan and China.

Pintadas en Naval Gijón para denunciar los incumplimientos con los trabajadores
 

"No a la especulación" y "Hoy avisamos, la próxima entramos" son algunas de las pintadas que, desde ayer, se pueden leer en los muros que rodean el cerrado astillero de Naval Gijón. Las pintadas fueron realizadas por extrabajadores que exigen a las administraciones públicas el cumplimiento de los acuerdos comprometidos en 2009 con los prejubilados y los despedidos. Los trabajadores cargan contra el consejero de Economía y Empleo, Graciano Torre, por su inacción y afean también el silencio del edil de empleo, Fernando Couto, que se comprometió a hacer de mediador con Pymar. A la derecha, tres extrabajadores realizan una de las pintadas.

Instead of aggressive order-taking, South Korean shipbuilders may only strive to maintain current order backlogs in 2015, said an analyst in a research note.

Youngsoo Han of Samsung Securities said, "After reviewing New Year messages from CEOs of Korea's big three shipbuilders - Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI), Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI), and Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME), it has become clear that all of them have more conservative industry outlooks than they did in 2014."

Han continued, "Jaeho Ko, CEO of DSME, and Ohgap Kwon, CEO of HHI, both worry about oil price declines and the
