Maritime Surveillance and Intervention Market Global Market Report 2024

The maritime surveillance and intervention market has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $26.18 billion in 2023 to $29.06 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as maritime security concerns, the prevalence of illegal activities and piracy, national defense initiatives, search and rescue operations, and environmental monitoring efforts.

The maritime surveillance and intervention market is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $43.29 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to geopolitical tensions, emerging threats, humanitarian assistance efforts, the adoption of technological innovations, and international collaborations. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the adoption of blockchain for enhanced maritime data security, the development of autonomous underwater vehicles, a focus on counter-drone technologies for maritime security, the introduction of high-frequency radar systems, and increased collaboration and information sharing among maritime nations.

The anticipated increase in trade and freight activities by sea is poised to drive the growth of the maritime surveillance and intervention market in the foreseeable future. Maritime trade involves the transportation of commodities by sea, offering lower emissions on long voyages and reduced transportation costs. The cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness of sea transport make it a preferred method for long-distance commodity transportation. With the global commercial shipping fleet reaching 2,134,640 thousand dead-weight tons in 2021, a 3.04% increase from 2,071,638 in 2020, as per the Maritime Transport 2021 report by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), there is a growing demand for maritime surveillance and intervention to ensure a prompt response to emergent maritime safety or security scenarios.

The upward trajectory of military expenditure is expected to contribute to the growth of the maritime surveillance and intervention market. Military expenditure involves allocating financial resources to fund a nation's military forces, defense infrastructure, and related activities. With geopolitical competition and security threats, rising military expenditure utilizes maritime surveillance and intervention to safeguard national interests and protect strategic sea routes. The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute reported that world military expenditure reached a new record high of $2,240 billion in 2022, marking a 3.7% increase in real terms compared to the previous year. The top three spenders in 2022 were the United States, China, and Russia, accounting for 56% of the world total. The escalating military expenditure acts as a driving force behind the growth of the maritime surveillance and intervention market.

Technological advancements stand out as a key trend gaining traction in the maritime surveillance and intervention market. Major players in this industry are concentrating on developing technologically advanced solutions that incorporate artificial intelligence, big data analytics, IoT, digital route management, surveillance satellites, and autonomous control systems to enhance their market positions. For example, in July 2021, Elecnor Deimos, a Spain-based aerospace and defense company, introduced the Neptune CubeSat, a maritime surveillance satellite utilizing cutting-edge technologies such as 3D printing, new materials such as ULTEM®, artificial intelligence, and intelligent sensorization. This advanced satellite employs information technology capable of analyzing millions of data points collected by ground stations using artificial intelligence technology.

Strategic partnerships have become a notable approach among major companies in the maritime surveillance and intervention industry. These partnerships involve leveraging complementary expertise and combining resources to develop comprehensive solutions that address complex maritime security challenges globally. For instance, in November 2023, Aerodata AG, a Germany-based provider of flight inspection systems, partnered with Milkor (Pty) Ltd., a South Africa-based Defense and Aerospace company, to launch a Milkor 380-based MALE UAS focused on maritime surveillance. This UAS offers dual-mode operation at altitudes ranging from 10,000 to 30,000 ft, a 35-hour endurance, a 1,300 kg Maximum Take-Off Weight, and customizable payloads, presenting a significant enhancement to global surveillance aircraft fleets.

In January 2022, Torch.AI, a US-based artificial intelligence (AI) powered ultra-high-speed data processing company, acquired B23 for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition brought B23's experience in applying machine learning to real-world situations together with Torch.AI's software platform, Nexus, aiming to provide substantial support to the United States Navy in various ways. B23 is a Virginia-based maritime surveillance company.
