Submarine Cables Market Growth & Trends


The global submarine cables market is expected to reach USD 44.33 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 5.9%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing investments in offshore wind farms, inter-country and island connections for improved power supply and communication, and growing investments in oil & gas deep-water drilling activities are the major factors driving the overall market. The increased investment by OTT companies in the deployment of high-capacity communications systems and the growing need for HVDC underwater power cables will provide numerous new opportunities that will lead the market of the submarine cable system. The rising internet and data traffic in the region, such as APAC, are the critical factors driving the market over the forecast period.

The densely populated regions, including APAC, South America, and MEA, actively invest in offshore wind power generation. These investments are expected to fuel the demand for submarine cables. The increasing demand and penetration of the internet, their collaboration with tier-1 vendors, and the rising demand for bandwidth caused due to the rise of 5G are a few factors that propel the demand for submarine cables.

Regional governments worldwide are aiming to increase their electricity generation output from fossil fuel-based sources of energy. The high costs incurred for the installation of cables and the difficulty in restoring and maintaining deep-water cables have adversely affected the adoption and implementation of submarine cables. Several threats, such as fishing hooks, cyclones, ships, and cruises, among others, raise the need for maintenance services. Therefore, proper installation techniques, materials, and the length of the cables propel the overall market growth. Any fault in submarine cables levies hefty costs to be spent on the repair and re-deployment process.

OTT providers are an integral part of market development. These players own, manage, and fund their submarine cables infrastructure. Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon are amongst the leading OTT providers, which have drastically changed the landscape of the overall market.
