Diving Support Vessel Market Size to Reach USD 4.2 Billion by 2033 | Featuring DOF Subsea, Siem Offshore, Tidewater, Bourbon Offshore, and Subsea 7
According to a new study by DataHorizzon Research, the "Diving Support Vessel Market" is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2025 to 2033, driven by the rising demand for subsea maintenance, offshore oil & gas exploration, and underwater infrastructure development. With expanding offshore renewable energy projects and the need for efficient underwater operations, diving support vessels (DSVs) are becoming an essential part of global subsea operations.Market Size & Insights
The global diving support vessel (DSV) market was valued at approximately USD 2.3 billion in 2024, and it is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2% from 2025 to 2033. By the end of the forecast period, the market is anticipated to reach a size of USD 4.2 billion, supported by growing offshore exploration and production (E&P) activities. DSVs are specialized ships designed to facilitate safe and efficient diving operations, typically equipped with dynamic positioning systems, decompression chambers, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and advanced safety technologies.
Oil & gas continues to be a major demand driver, with offshore fields requiring regular inspection, maintenance, and repair of subsea pipelines and platforms. Additionally, the rise of offshore wind farms and subsea cable installations is opening new growth opportunities for the DSV market. The vessels are also crucial in salvage operations, underwater construction, and research applications.
The trend toward deepwater and ultra-deepwater exploration is further fueling demand for high-capacity DSVs capable of operating in challenging marine environments. Moreover, technological upgrades such as automation, AI-enabled monitoring systems, and hybrid propulsion technologies are transforming the operational efficiency of these vessels.
Overall, the market outlook remains strong as investments in offshore energy infrastructure and subsea operations continue to rise globally.
