The global marine sensors market is projected to grow from USD 1.4 million in 2023 to USD 1.9 million by 2028, at a CAGR of 6.5% from 2023 to 2028. Increasing need for maritime transportation and navies focusing on technologically advanced marine vessels drive the marine sensors market. However, management of massive data generated by marine sensors and maintenance Process and Calibration of sensors are limiting the overall growth of the market.
Commercial Tankers: The largest share in ship type segment in the marine sensors market in 2023
The tankers sub segment of commercial ship type segment is projected to have the largest share in 2023. Tankers play a crucial role in the global economy by facilitating the movement of essential resources and commodities across the world's oceans and waterways. They are equipped with advanced navigation and safety systems to ensure the safe transport of their cargoes and to protect the marine environment.
In July 2023 the U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) confirmed the enrollment of nine ships in the Tanker Security Program (TSP). This program was established to meet national defense and security needs by creating a fleet of commercially viable, privately-owned product tank vessels. Funding for TSP was allocated by Congress through the Fiscal Year 2022 Consolidated Appropriations Act, as mandated by the Fiscal Year 2021 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) with minor adjustments in the FY22 NDAA.
Fuel and Propulsion: The second largest share in application segment in the marine sensors market in 2023
The Fuel and propulsion sub segment of application type segment is projected to have the second largest share in 2023. Marine sensors are essential components in fuel and propulsion systems for ships and boats. These sensors serve critical functions to enhance operational efficiency and safety. They monitor fuel levels and flow, enabling operators to manage consumption effectively and detect any anomalies. Engine temperature and pressure sensors ensure safe engine operation by preventing overheating and detecting issues like low oil pressure.
Marine sensors also play a pivotal role in emissions control, helping vessels comply with environmental regulations by monitoring exhaust emissions. They contribute to propulsion system health by measuring RPM and detecting abnormal vibrations, facilitating optimal engine performance. Additionally, GPS sensors aid navigation and safety by providing real-time location data for route planning and collision avoidance. These sensors are integrated into alarm and safety systems, ensuring early warning and protection for both crew and vessel. Overall, marine sensors are indispensable tools for improving efficiency, compliance, and safety in the maritime industry.
Pressure Sensors: The second largest share in sensor type segment in the marine sensors market in 2023
The pressure sensor sub segment of sensor type segment is projected to have the second largest share in 2023. In the maritime operations, diverse control systems and marine air compressors, both high and low-pressure variants, alongside submerged firewater pipe level equipment, exhibit distinct prerequisites for pressure and level assessment. The robust and precise measurements by individual pressure sensors provide vital information and output for optimizing system functionality, resulting in enhanced efficiency, diminished energy consumption, and precise system positioning. Furthermore, the utilization of pressure measurement for equipment condition monitoring and early detection of issues also establishes a foundational dataset supporting the reliability and failure rate analysis of ship systems.
For example, pressure sensors are commonly used to measure water depth, enabling vessels to determine their position relative to the seabed or water surface and in remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to control their depth and maintain buoyancy.
