The submarine descends 50 meters every 3 minutes, so it takes 3 minutes to descend 50 meters.
To reach a depth of 1,000 meters, the submarine needs to descend an additional 500 meters (1,000 - 500 = 500 meters).
Therefore, it takes 3 minutes x 500 meters/50 meters = 30 minutes to reach a depth of 1,000 meters. Answer: \boxed{30}.
