The underwater concrete market size is estimated to be USD 135.7 billion in 2023, and it is projected to reach USD 175.8 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 5.3%. Underwater concrete refers to a type of concrete that is specifically designed and formulated to be placed and hardened underwater. It is used in various construction and engineering projects where the concrete needs to be poured and set in an aquatic environment, such as underwater foundations, dams, tunnels, marine structures, and offshore platforms.
Rising population, improving living standards, and rising urbanization lead to an increase in the construction activity. As a result of this, infrastructure development & reconstruction activities are increasing which drive the market of underwater concrete during the forecast period. Apart from this, technological advancements and increasing marine construction activities also help in driving the market of underwater concrete during the forecast period. Technical complexity & safety risks and Environmental implications are becoming the main restraining factors in this market. However, scaling up the use of offshore wind turbines provides lucrative opportunities for underwater concrete producers. Curing challenge, and Cost & intense competition are the major challenges of this market.

By Raw Material, concrete accounted for the largest share in 2022
The concrete segment holds the largest share in 2022. It is due to its numerous advantages, including strength, durability, versatility, and affordability. Concrete can be formulated with the right proportions of fine and coarse aggregates, as well as suitable admixtures, to control cohesion and minimize the risk of segregation. It is used in various construction applications, such as buildings, bridges, roads, dams, and infrastructure projects. The demand for concrete is driven by the ongoing need for new construction, urbanization, infrastructure development, and renovation projects.
By Application, Marine Constructions accounted for the largest share in 2022
The underwater concrete is used in several application segments such as dams & reservoirs, marine constructions (i.e., ports & harbors, bridge piers, and others), underwater repairs, offshore wind power generation, tunnels, and others. Out of such application segments, marine construction holds the largest market share in 2022. The demand for underwater concrete in marine construction is driven by various factors, including coastal protection needs, offshore oil and gas exploration, renewable energy projects such as offshore wind farms, port and harbor infrastructure development, and others.
By Laying techniques, Tremie Method accounted for the largest share in 2022
The tremie method is a widely used technique for placing concrete underwater, particularly in marine and bridge construction projects. It is employed to ensure a continuous flow of concrete to the desired location without segregation or excessive contact with water. Apart from this, this method offers several advantages for underwater concrete placement, including preventing segregation, minimizing the risk of washout, ensuring uniform concrete quality, and reducing the impact of water currents.
