Compiled and published by the International Association of Dredging Companies (IADC), Dredging in Figures presents an annual overview of the global dredging industry’s performance in 2024 as well as insights into its key performance indicators.

The report begins with a general overview of the preceding year’s economic situation as this indirectly impacted each of the industry’s performance indicators.
