Sea Water Pumps Market Report 2026

The sea water pumps market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $1.4 billion in 2025 to $1.46 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of global desalination capacity, expansion of marine transportation, development of offshore oil and gas infrastructure, rising coastal power generation projects, increased use of sea water cooling systems.

The sea water pumps market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.76 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising freshwater scarcity, expansion of desalination infrastructure, growth of offshore renewable energy projects, increasing investments in coastal infrastructure, demand for long-life marine pumping solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of corrosion-resistant pump materials, rising demand for energy-efficient sea water pumps, increasing use of submersible pumps in marine applications, expansion of high-capacity pumps for desalination projects, shift toward modular and easy-to-maintain pump designs.

The increasing demand for desalination plants is anticipated to drive the growth of the seawater pumps market in the coming years. Desalination plants are facilities that convert seawater into fresh, potable water by eliminating salts and impurities, addressing critical water scarcity issues in arid or water-stressed regions. This rising need for desalination is fueled by factors such as growing global water demand, decreasing freshwater resources, unpredictable watershed variability, rapid population growth, and climate change. Seawater pumps play a vital role in desalination plants by efficiently drawing seawater, which is subsequently processed to produce fresh water. For example, in August 2023, the World Resources Institute, a US-based non-profit research organization, reported that global water demand is projected to increase by 20-25% by 2023, with 19% more watersheds expected to face unpredictable water supplies and the entire population of the Middle East and North Africa facing severe water stress by 2050. Consequently, the rising need for desalination plants is propelling the seawater pumps market.

Key players in the seawater pumps industry are concentrating on developing innovative products, such as advanced corrosion-resistant pumps, to offer a high-efficiency and durable solution for transporting significant volumes of water and wastewater in challenging conditions. These advanced corrosion-resistant pumps are specifically designed to function in harsh environments, utilizing durable materials and technologies that prevent deterioration from corrosive chemicals or extreme conditions. For instance, in October 2023, KSB SE & Co. KGaA, a German manufacturer of pumps and valves, introduced the AmaCan D submersible pump. This pump features an open multi-vane impeller, a maximum flow rate of 8,000 m³/hour, and advanced sensors for monitoring vibration and temperature, ensuring high operational reliability and predictive maintenance. Its corrosion- and abrasion-resistant materials make it ideal for demanding applications such as seawater aquaculture and wastewater management, enhancing both durability and efficiency.

In September 2023, Waterco Limited, an Australian company specializing in water treatment and filtration products, acquired Davey Water Products Pty Ltd. for $44.2 million. This acquisition aims to boost market share, enhance product offerings through complementary portfolios and joint research and development (R&D), and improve operational efficiency by sharing resources and best practices. This aligns with Waterco's long-term goal of becoming a global leader in the water technology industry. Davey Water Products Pty Ltd. is an Australian company that provides pumps and pressure systems, including seawater pumps.
