China’s marine engineering construction value rose 0.3% in 2025
China’s marine engineering construction industry added 2.11 trillion yuan in value in 2025, up 0.3% in real terms from the year before.
The figures were released in Xiamen by a marine research centre under China’s Ministry of Natural Resources.
Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian and Jiangsu together accounted for about 76% of the national total, with Zhejiang and Shandong contributing more than 45% combined.
Projects advanced in offshore wind, oil and gas, transport and other fields; offshore wind capacity added rose by more than 60%, and a high-speed rail tunnel beneath Shantou Bay was completed.
The industry has also increased domestic production of key equipment and expanded construction capabilities in areas such as bridges, ports and offshore wind.
The figures show a sector growing slowly while shifting towards domestic, greener and smarter technology.
The industry plans to keep developing core technologies and supply chains while balancing growth with protection of the marine environment.
