At present, there are broad markets and application prospects for domestic and international submarine cables, which are mainly reflected in the following markets: Coastal cities and island markets China is a large maritime country with a coastline of 18000 kilometers, 6000 many large and small islands scattered on the outer edge of the coast.

At present, there are broad markets and application prospects for domestic and international submarine cables, which are mainly reflected in the following markets:

1. Coastal cities and island markets China is a large maritime country with a coastline of 18000 kilometres, 6000 many large and small islands scattered around the outer edge of the coast. Submarine cables are an important means of transmission of power and communication between coastal islands and cities. The amount of photoelectric composite submarine cables and submarine cross-linked cables required between coastal cities, between islands and between islands and the mainland was about 800km in 2006, and the demand is expected to be more than 3000km by 2020.

2. Submarine Cable Market for Offshore Oil Platforms It is understood that the amount of cables used on each offshore oil platform is 150km for jack-up platforms, 180km for semi-submersible platforms, 200km for oil production platforms, 200km for production platforms and 100km for living platforms. Recently, South Korea built a large offshore oil platform for Russia, sharing about 900km of various cables. China needs 13000km of various cables to build and maintain offshore oil platforms every year. About 15% of the submarine cables use photoelectric composite submarine cables and submarine power cables. It is conservatively estimated that about 2000km of submarine cables of various types and specifications will be used.

3. Underwater cable markets such as rivers and lakes are more and more widely used due to the need to transform rivers, lakes and reservoir dams. Underwater cables are mainly distributed in the Yangtze River, Yellow River, Nujiang River, Qiantang River, Pearl River and other markets. In 2006, the consumption of submarine cables was about 300km, and the market demand will be even greater by 2020.

4. With the rapid development of offshore wind power and submarine cables for transmission on land, a new field of wind energy utilization-offshore wind power is quietly emerging, and many countries in the world have formulated plans to develop offshore wind farms. The construction of offshore wind farms is an important direction for the development of new energy in the world, and it will also be the "direction in the direction" of the development of China's wind power industry ". At present, there are nearly 100 onshore wind farms in China, with a total installed capacity of about 2.6 million kilowatts by 2006 and expected to reach 5 million kilowatts by 2007, but the construction of offshore wind farms has just started. It is estimated that the total installed capacity of wind power generation will reach 30 million kilowatts by 2020. For submarine cables, their applications in offshore wind power generation and transmission have broad market prospects.

5. Southeast Asia and other international markets Southeast Asian countries such as Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, etc. currently do not have the production capacity of submarine cables. Many local regional submarine cable projects import photoelectric composite submarine cables from Western Europe, which are costly and our submarine cable manufacturers have cost and geographical advantages. The demand for submarine cables in China's neighboring countries and regions is about 1500km. Through the above analysis, it can be seen that the demand for photoelectric composite submarine cables and submarine cross-linked cables has recently grown rapidly, and the future demand is promising. China's submarine cable market can be described as a good, all cable companies should fully seize the opportunity to expand the coastal cities and islands market, offshore oil platforms with submarine cable market, offshore wind power and transmission with submarine cable, rivers and lakes and other underwater cable market and Southeast Asia and other international markets.
