Market Segmentation





Global Offshore Support Vessel Market

The global offshore support vessel is expected to grow at USD ~25.0 billion by 2023 with a CAGR of more than ~5.0% in the forecast period because of rise in oil and gas demand, across the world, and an increase in offshore exploration and drilling activities. Additionally, companies involved in this give the highest importance to R&D to ensure better operational efficiency because of growing fleet competitors in market.

Based on type, the market has been segmented as Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessel, Platform Supply Vessel, Multipurpose Support Vessel, Standby & Rescue Vessel, Standby & Rescue Vessel and seismic vessel. Among them, Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessel is estimated to have high growth and the largest market share in forecast period as it holds various functions together such as mooring chain of drilling rigs, positioning of site, towing of rigs, and other supply duties as and when required. Anchor Handling requires high power, deck space aft, winch capacity and other auxiliary handling equipment.

Based on region, North America is the largest market share as there are large untapped resources and a high number of rig count of ~200, followed by Asia Pacific, which includes countries such as China and India. The future seems secure for offshore support vessel as India consists more than ~200 fleet and this count is increasing as these countries are tying up with other foreign flagged vessel for fulfilment of the demand.
