The ISU has published its annual statistics for 2025. They are the only published measure of the state of the industry but do not include information from non-ISU members.
- Gross revenue for ISU members – US$ 190 million (2024, US$ 406 million)
- 166 services provided (2024, 191 services)
- Lloyd’s Open Form (LOF) – 18 cases (2024, 29). LOF revenue US$ 50 million (2024, US$ 118 million)
- Wreck removal income – US$ 46 million from 18 services (2024, US$ 205 million from 40 services)
All numbers are gross income from which all the contractors’ costs must be paid. Numbers are for income in the year received not the year when the service was provided and there can be an element of “time lag”. ISU members
