Underwater Connectors Market Size, Share, Growth and Global Industry Analysis By Type & Application, Regional Insights and Forecast to 2024-2032
Growth Factors of Underwater Connectors Market
The underwater connectors market size was valued at USD 1.61 billion in 2020, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 1.66 billion in 2021 to USD 2.45 billion by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.01% during the forecast period of 2021-2028.
The market was severely affected by the COVID-19 outbreak, and fluctuating defense budgets, an unfavorable market climate, and disrupted supply chains impacted it. These factors contributed to the postponed of projects and decrease in expenditure on the different fields. Due to this most industries experienced some difficulties in trying to carry out their production and fulfilling the needs of their customers. Though it will remain somewhat lower due to the conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the market should grow as conditions improve post-vaccination.
In the last ten years, the interest in manned and unmanned submersible vehicles has fostered analysis and creation of enhanced communication and detection tools. This has resulted in revitalization of ageing subsurface assets and procurement of new underwater platforms for patrols, border security and ISR. These advancements are now proving essential in boosting operational outcomes as nations pay proportions of premium to maritime security. The increasing need for such technologies is likely to rise as the years progress.
Specifically, there is a growing demand for underwater connectors due to growing utilization of subsea structures and high usage of subsea kits for purpose such as telecommunication cables, scientific research, and mining among others. Rubber molded connectors have gained popularity because of their robust characteristics and relatively low prices. In the year 2019, Hydro Group introduced the new range of URM connectors which includes different sizes, combinations, and voltages of rubber molded connectors for underwater. These connectors are easy to install and made from the best materials to ensure they can work well in the toughest underwater environments.
