Published 17 March 2025

Dredging Market Overview 

The global Dredging Market is on a trajectory of steady growth, driven by increased demand for waterway maintenance, port development, and infrastructure expansion. According to recent analyses, the market is projected to grow from US$ 10.88 Bn in 2023 to US$ 13.06 Bn in 2030, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.65%.

Dredging is an excavation process used to gather bottom sediments and dispose of them in a new area. It is often carried out in shallow water, at least partially submerged. It is a process that uses specialized dredging vessels to transport natural resources from one area of the maritime environment to another. Maintaining navigable rivers and ports, constructing new ports, protecting the coast, reclaiming land, and extracting sediments like sand and gravel for use in construction are the main objectives of dredging.
