An offshore supply vessel, often referred to as an OSV, plays a vital role in offshore operations. These vessels are designed to transport goods, fuel, equipment, and personnel to offshore installations. The offshore industry relies on them to keep operations running smoothly and safely.
Support vessels are divided into several categories:
Utility vessels general support and equipment transport for offshore projects

Each type of support vessel has its own specifications and operational advantages.

When reviewing offshore support vessels, specifications are essential. Buyers should consider the size of the vessel, its deck area, and the cargo or passenger capacity. Engine type and fuel efficiency play a key role in long-term operating costs.
Important factors to review include:
Vessel size, deck area, and cargo or passenger capacity
