(MENAFN- iCrowdNewsWire)
Marine communication system developers are pushing to leverage defense and security applications including real-time navigation and distress call responses.
The global is estimated to display a healthy 7.8% CAGR for forecast period from 2021 to 2031 and is expected to surpass US$ 8.6 billion in 2031, according to a latest study by market research firm Future Market Insights (FMI). Growing need for high-quality, secure and reliable communication between shores and ships has increased the demand for marine communication systems and its solutions.
Naval operations, piracy threats, and challenges associated with accidents in maritime environments remain key factors driving the adoption of modern marine communication systems. While conventional VHF radio and digital selective calling services remain in use, satellite-based systems are likely to display strong growth on the back of improved operational efficiency in the coming decade.

Marine Communication Market – Driving Factors
- Investments by marine fleet owners towards communication upgrades for real-time data on ships and performance parameters are driving growth.
- Continued threats of piracy in remote marine regions are playing a major role in adoption by defense organizations.
- Improvements in operational efficiency and reliability through satellite based systems with the steady rise in marine traffic drives growth.
Marine Communication Market – Leading Constraints
- Lack of awareness about the technical aspects of satellite communications is holding back adoption rates.
- Security concerns in terms of hacking communication channels remains a challenge for service providers.
Expected Impact on Market by Coronavirus Outbreak
The global covid-19 pandemic has moderately impacted growth prospects for players participating in the marine communication market. Global concerns over viral transmission, and lockdown restrictions on marine transport and shipping activities since the onset of the outbreak has hurt short-term demand for marine communication offerings. Further, disruptions to supply chains for essential components also hurt growth.
On the other hand, requirements for tracking and managing the virus on ship-based populations provided critical opportunities to sustain operations during the crisis. With the gradual relaxation of regulations in recent months, the market is likely to display signs of steady recovery through 2021.
