The Middle East & Africa submarine power cable market is expected to grow from US$ 164.24 million in 2021 to US$ 242.29 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2021 to 2028.
Samsung C&T Corporation has given Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. a limited notice to proceed (LNTP) to supply a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable to Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Sumitomo Electric's state-of-the-art 400 kV DC Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) cable technology was used to build the Middle East's first submarine HVDC network (route length of approximately 140 km). By 2050, the United Arab Emirates has set a national objective of zero greenhouse gas emissions (Net-zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative). This project intends to produce a considerable decrease in CO2 emissions by supplying sustainable power from the mainland via the HVDC transmission infrastructure connecting the UAE mainland with Das Island in the Persian Gulf, in accordance with the plan.
Rise in Development of Underwater Data Center is Driving the Middle East & Africa Submarine Power Cable Market
Underwater data centers have been gaining momentum over the years owing to various factors such as lack of space above the ground, increased effectiveness due to fewer failures, and serving a larger section of people at a lower cost. These factors have increased the investment on underwater data centers. Two type of submarine cables are used in these data centers that is one for transferring data and the other are power cables for powering the whole data center and its operations under the sea. These factors are expected to increase the demand for subsea cable systems, thereby creating lucrative demand for submarine power cables for powering the whole data center operations below the sea, thereby contributing to the growth of the Middle East & Africa submarine power cable market.Middle East & Africa Submarine Power Cable Market Overview
The Middle East & Africa submarine power cable market is segmented into Saudi Arabia, the UAE, South Africa, and the Rest of Middle East and Africa. The oil and gas landscape in the Middle East has changed dramatically in recent years with investments in a wider range of projects, including LNG and technical offshore projects. This trend is expected to continue in the coming years with a projected offshore exploration spending of fivefold by 2025. A few of the major projects ongoing across the region include the enhancement of the production capacity of Zakum in Abu Dhabi, and Abu Dhabi Northwest Development - Hail and Ghasha Sour Gas. Such a rise in investments in offshore oil and gas plants is expected to trigger the demand for submarine power cable systems across the Middle East & Africa.Samsung C&T Corporation has given Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. a limited notice to proceed (LNTP) to supply a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable to Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
