Subsea Cable Inspection Equipment Market size was valued at USD 57.2 million in 2023 and is projected to exceed USD 181.74 million by 2036, registering over 9.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In the year 2024, the industry size of subsea cable inspection equipment is evaluated at USD 61.46 million. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing investments in offshore wind energy, and favorable government initiatives raising the demand for renewable energy around the world. Along with these, growing demand for oil & gas, as a result from industrialization and urbanization, is expected to drive the need for drilling, which in turn is projected to bolster market growth significantly in the near future.
Furthermore, rising internet usage, coupled with the surging demand for fast bandwidth speeds, are evaluated to drive the demand for subsea cables. According to the World Bank, about 56.727% of the total population in the world used internet in 2019, up from 49.907% in 2018 and 46.317% in 2017, respectively. This is evaluated to offer profitable opportunities to the market in the upcoming years.
