Underwater drones are unmanned underwater vehicles designed to enhance the analysis of what lies below the oceans, seas, and rivers. Underwater drones dive deep down the oceans and help locate and detect the oil & gas reserves, marine life, submerged archaeological sites, and temperature variations. The sensors, manipulator arms, cameras, and other equipment fitted on underwater drones simplify inspection and surveillance tasks for oil & gas companies and defense forces. This boosts the demand for underwater drones globally. An increase in defense expenses to strengthen the armed forces, a rise in offshore oil & gas exploration activities, and a surge in demand for oceanographic research to assess the oceans are anticipated to drive the growth of the global underwater drone market during the forecast period. However, the challenges associated with underwater communications are anticipated to hinder market growth during the forecast years.

Moreover, Asia-Pacific was the second highest revenue contributor in the underwater drone market due to several countries increasing their military dominance in the region. China sends underwater drones across different places for spying purposes to better understand the military activities and developments of other countries. To counter the rise in interference of the Chinese army, countries such as India and Japan have started the development and procurement of underwater drones in the region. For instance, in September 2022, The Chinese Navy developed extra-large unmanned underwater vehicles (XLUUVs), seen as a key part of the country’s future naval fleet. It is around 16 meters (52 feet) long and appears to have two propellers. Its size is similar to the US Navy’s Orca XLUUV developed by Boeing.

The market is segmented into type, propulsion system, application, product type, and region. The type of segment is further divided into remotely operated vehicle (ROV), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV), and hybrid vehicles. By propulsion system, the market is segmented into electric system, mechanical system, and hybrid system. By application, the market is segmented into defense & security, scientific research, commercial exploration, and others. By product type, the market is segmented into micro, small and medium, light work class, and heavy work class. Region-wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

The report includes a study of the underwater drone market with respect to the growth prospects and restraints based on the regional analysis.

Executive Summary

The Underwater Drone Market is expected to experience a significant growth rate of 15.9% from 2022-2031 owing to the implementation of UUVs in deep-water offshore oil and gas exploration activities.

An underwater drone is a robotic system that can be operated under seawater without human intervention. It is divided into two parts, including a remote-controlled underwater vehicle and an autonomous underwater vehicle. In addition, remotely operated underwater vehicles are remotely operated by humans, and autonomous underwater vehicles are operated without human intervention. Underwater drones are useful for underwater inspections in the offshore oil and gas industry. Advances in underwater drone technology, such as higher resolution cameras, better manipulator arms, and more sensitive sonar, have reduced the time it takes to locate and investigate an object.

The major drivers for the market growth are increased offshore oil and gas activity, increased use of umbilical applications for security purposes and increased demand for marine data and mapping are driving the growth of the underwater drone market. For instance, remotely operated vehicles (ROV) are being used to gather samples from the seafloor to evaluate their microplastic content and collect data on underwater species. In addition, rising government initiatives for innovation, investment, and technological advancement, and growing surveillance activities for security provide growth opportunities for the market. Furthermore, safety is paramount as submarine communication cables transmit large amounts of sensitive information between countries using a variety of sensor technologies that monitor the submarine cable environment. However, the slow underwater survey speed of the underwater drone and high operating costs may hinder market growth. Underwater drones provide high-quality marine data and a range of technological advances for various sectors such as military, oil & gas. Military ships are equipped with advanced autonomous technologies that require huge investments.

The market also offers growth opportunities to the key players in the market. Rapid technological developments in underwater drones, such as higher underwater depth access and better communication provide growth opportunities to the underwater drone market. In addition, the introduction of smart devices has resulted in better operating and risk management. In addition, improved battery life and autonomous capability are expected to expand their presence in various commercial and marine applications and sectors.

The market is segmented into type, propulsion system, application, product type, and region. The type segment is further divided into remotely operated vehicle (ROV), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV), and hybrid vehicles. By propulsion system, the market is segmented into electric system, mechanical system, and hybrid system. Depending on application, the market is segmented into defense & security, scientific research, commercial exploration, and others. In terms of product type, the market is segmented into micro, small and medium, light work-class, and heavy work-class. By region, it is analyzed across North America (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Russia, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, India, Japan, South Korea, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East and Africa)

Key players operating in the global underwater drones market includes The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Bluefin Robotics, Saab Seaeye Ltd, Teledyne Marine Group, Kongsberg Maritime, Oceaneering International, Inc., TechnipFMC plc, ECA Group, and Deep Ocean Engineering, Inc. The players in the market have been actively engaged in the adoption of various Strategies such as have adopted, agreements, expansion, and product launches to remain competitive and gain an advantage over the competitors in the market. For instance, in August 2021, General Dynamics Mission Systems parent company of Bluefin Robotics Corporation opened a new UUV manufacturing and assembly facility at its Taunton manufacturing site.
