Underwater drones, also known as unmanned underwater vehicles (UUV), are vehicles that can operate under water (ocean and sea) without a human occupant. These vehicles are broadly classified into two types, first remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs), which are controlled throughout their operations by a remote human operator, and second autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), which can function autonomously without any real-time human inputs. Technological advancements in unmanned underwater vehicles, such as high-resolution cameras, superior manipulator arms, and highly sensitive sonar, have resulted in a reduction in the time required to inspect equipment and other submerged items, opening up a plethora of opportunities in the underwater drone market. Underwater drones are increasingly being used in the offshore oil and gas industry for infrastructure inspection, maintenance, and repair, which is driving market growth. The high demand for underwater drones in the marine industry is driving market expansion, particularly for underwater survey missions. However, the limited remote-control range of underwater drones limits their market growth. This limitation stems from the use of radio waves, which do not propagate well through water, and direct-beam optical communication systems, which rely on line of sight and water turbidity for range.

 

The autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones market during the forecast period.      

Based on the type, the global underwater drones market is categorized into remotely operated vehicle (ROV), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV), and hybrid vehicles. Among these, the autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones market during the forecast period. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are essential components of oceanographic research because they can collect data, conduct exploration, and generate 3D maps or reconstructions. Because of their ability to inspect and maintain submerged facilities, AUVs are expected to be in high demand from the oil and gas sector over the forecast period.

 

The light work-class segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones’ market during the forecast period.   

Based on the product type, the global underwater drones market is categorized into micro, small & medium, light work-class, heavy work-class and others. Among these, the light work-class segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones’ market during the forecast period. Maintenance and inspections can be carried out using underwater drones classified as light work. The underwater vehicle can be equipped with laser scanners, as well as specific inspection devices and sensors. These drones can be used for commercial, defense and security, or research purposes.

 

The electric system segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones’ market during the forecast period.   

Based on the propulsion system, the global underwater drones’ market is divided into electric system, mechanical system, and hybrid system. Among these, the electric system segment is expected to grow at fastest pace in the underwater drones market during the forecast period. Electric propulsion systems are known for being more energy efficient than traditional internal combustion engines. They can convert a larger portion of the energy from the power source into thrust, resulting in longer mission durations and lower operational costs.

 

The defense & security segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones’ market during the forecast period.

Based on the application, the global underwater drones market is divided into defense & security, scientific research, commercial exploration, and others. Among these,s the defense & security segment is expected to grow at fastest pace in the Underwater Drones market during the forecast period. Organizations in charge of port security and maritime rescue are increasingly using underwater drones. ROVS/AUVS are ideal for scanning and observation purposes. Underwater drones are useful for a wide range of defense and security applications, including port security, criminal investigations, search and recovery, training, and more.

 

North America is anticipated to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones market over the predicted timeframe.

North America is projected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones market over the forecast period. North America is projected to hold the largest share of the global underwater drones’ market over the forecast period. North America is expected to witness an increase in demand for underwater drones, driven primarily by increased procurement of ROVs and AUVs for military modernization. For instance, beginning in November 2022, the United States nuclear attack submarine fleet will be able to launch and recover underwater drones via torpedo tubes, allowing any submarine in the fleet to operate them while on patrol.

 

Asia Pacific is expected to grow the fastest in the global underwater drones market during the forecast period. Several Asia-Pacific countries are increasing their defense spending, which is driving up demand for underwater drones in naval and maritime security applications. Furthermore, China's underwater drone market had the highest market share, while India's underwater drone market was the fastest growing in the Asia-Pacific region.

 

Major vendors in the global underwater drones market are Aeromedevac, SHM Shipcare, Falck A/S, Air Methods Corporation, Harmonie Ambulance, BVG India Limited, Babcock Scandinavian Air Ambulance, Acadian Ambulance Service, and others.
