Problem Statement and Purpose. The Black Sea region of Ukraine has a large coastline and a favorable geographical location, being at the intersection of international transport routes, which creates favorable conditions for the development of the maritime transport sector. Marine and coastal ecosystems of the northwestern part of the Black Sea provide a number of ecosystem services, namely, providing the local population with food, various recreational services, which include treatment with the marine climate and estuary mud. All these conditions make the development of the blue economy one of the most promising areas of development of the sectors of the Ukrainian economy. Today, the main task for the Black Sea countries is to identify blue economy sectors with significant development potential for consideration by policymakers in order to develop appropriate policy instruments and national funding programs. The aim of the work is to determine the trend in 2010–2022 of production indicators in the priority sectors of the blue economy of Ukraine. Data & Methods. The analysis was conducted for the priority sectors of the blue economy in 2010–2022. The data about capture production in the Black Sea, aquaculture production in marine environments was analyzed. The analysis of the marine and coastal tourism sector is based on annual statistics on import and export of services. Analysis of import and export of port services and related infrastructure and logistics services, maritime transport services, as well as information on maritime transport (the composition of the national merchant fleet) was carried out. Results. For a part of Ukraine 2018–2022 pp. falls 2.2% from the total amount of marine living resources found in the Black Sea. On average, 18.2 thousand tons of marine living resources were harvested annually in 2010–2022. According to FAO data, in Ukraine in 2010–2015, an average of 78.1 tons of mariculture worth 93.7 thousand USD was grown annually. According to data for 2021, of cargo were processed in the largest Black Sea ports (million tons): Pivdennyi – 53.5, Mykolaiv – 29.9, Chornomorsk – 25.6, Odesa – 22.6. An analysis of cargo transportation by sea in the Black Sea showed that in 2011–2021, Ukraine transported an average of 2.7 million tons of cargo by sea annually.
