According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Cable Laying Vessels market size was valued at US$ 525 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1112 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 11.5% during review period.
Cable Laying Vessels (CLVs) are specialized ships designed for the transportation, installation, and maintenance of subsea cables. These vessels are essential for laying: Power cables (e.g., for offshore wind farms, interconnectors, and grid links), Telecommunication cables (e.g., transoceanic fiber-optic cables).
The Cable Laying Vessel market is experiencing strong, sustained growth due to increasing demand from offshore wind, telecom, and grid infrastructure sectors. However, challenges such as high capital costs, limited fleet availability, and skilled labor shortages persist.
Market Drivers
Offshore Wind Energy Growth: Rapid global expansion of offshore wind projects requires inter-array and export cable installations. Telecom Infrastructure Expansion: Increasing demand for global internet and data services drives the need for new subsea fiber-optic cables. Grid Modernization & Interconnectors: Nations are enhancing cross-border power connections for energy security and renewable integration. Fleet Modernization: Older vessels being replaced by more efficient and eco-friendly ships to meet stricter environmental standards.
Market Trends
Technological Advancement: Incorporation of automation, AI for route optimization, and digital monitoring systems. Multi-Purpose Vessel Design: Modern CLVs are equipped for multiple roles: laying, trenching, inspection, and repair. Hybrid & Green Propulsion Systems: To meet emissions regulations (IMO 2030), new vessels are using hybrid-electric or LNG systems. Rise of Deepwater Projects: Growing demand for CLVs capable of operating in deep and ultra-deepwater environments, especially for floating wind and intercontinental cable projects. Regional Investment Surge: Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, South Korea) and North America are increasing domestic CLV capacity to reduce reliance on foreign fleets.
