The global ROV for Laying Submarine Cables market was valued at US$ 365 million in 2025 and is anticipated to reach US$ 612 million by 2032, at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2026 to 2032.
ROVs for Laying Submarine Cables are remotely operated underwater vehicle systems specifically designed and optimized for submarine cable laying operations. As a key underwater extension of the surface construction vessel, they typically integrate cable guides, tension monitoring, high-definition observation, and navigation and positioning systems, enabling precise guidance of cable placement and initial positioning in complex seabed terrain. Some models are also equipped with jet burial plows or robotic arms, allowing for shallow burial during laying. Their core value lies in replacing traditional towing or manual diving methods with high-precision, highly mobile unmanned operations, significantly improving laying efficiency, safety, and cable protection. They are essential equipment for deep-sea cable engineering.Driven by the large-scale development of offshore wind power and the strong momentum of global digital infrastructure interconnection, the market prospects for ROVs for Laying Submarine Cables continue to be positive. Its development is evolving towards heavier, more intelligent, and multifunctional integration: its operational capabilities are expanding to deeper waters and more complex sea conditions; by integrating AI path planning, automatic obstacle avoidance, and digital twin technologies, it achieves semi-autonomous or autonomous laying, improving operational accuracy and efficiency; simultaneously, its modular design allows it to quickly switch between "laying mode" and "maintenance mode" to adapt to the comprehensive needs of laying and subsequent maintenance. In the future, this equipment will become a key indicator of submarine cable engineering turnkey capabilities, and its widespread adoption and technological advancements will directly determine the deployment speed and reliability of marine energy and communication networks.
