Asia-Pacific Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs) Market Forecast 2025-2034: OSV Applications Expand Beyond Oil & Gas into Wind and Subsea Sectors, Driving the Market at 7.5% CAGR


Dublin, June 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Asia-Pacific Offshore Support Vessels Market Forecast 2025-2034" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to this report, the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market size reached a value of nearly USD 4.73 billion in 2024. Aided by the increasing offshore oil and gas exploration activities and growing investments in renewable energy projects, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% between 2025 and 2034 to reach a value of around USD 9.75 billion by 2034.

The increasing demand for offshore hydrocarbon resources, coupled with advancements in vessel technology, is boosting the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market revenue.

The rising exploration and production (E&P) activities in deepwater and ultra-deepwater regions are a significant factor propelling the market in the Asia-Pacific. Countries such as China, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia are actively investing in offshore oil and gas exploration to enhance energy security and reduce dependency on imports. As offshore fields require specialised logistics and operational support, the demand for OSVs has surged, fuelling the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market development.

The expanding applications of offshore support vessels in multiple industries also contribute to the market expansion. Beyond oil and gas, OSVs are increasingly being utilised in offshore wind farms, undersea cable laying, and subsea construction. The rising focus on renewable energy projects in countries like Australia, Japan, and South Korea has led to increased deployment of OSVs, supporting offshore wind farm installations and maintenance activities. This is one of the key Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market trends.

Another trend is the increasing focus on offshore renewable energy projects. Governments across the Asia-Pacific region are actively promoting offshore wind energy as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. As a result, OSVs are being used for turbine installation, cable laying, and ongoing maintenance, driving new growth opportunities for vessel operators. This is creating a favourable Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market outlook.

Another significant trend is technological advancement in offshore support vessels. Shipbuilders and service providers are integrating automation, dynamic positioning systems, and fuel-efficient technologies to enhance vessel performance and reduce operational costs. The development of hybrid and electric OSVs is gaining traction, driven by stringent environmental regulations and the push for lower carbon emissions in the maritime sector. This is favourably shaping the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market dynamics.

The growing adoption of digitalisation in offshore operations is also influencing the market. Advanced fleet management solutions, real-time monitoring systems, and predictive maintenance tools are helping OSV operators improve efficiency, enhance safety, and minimise downtime. The integration of smart technologies is expected to further streamline offshore logistics and optimise vessel utilisation rates. This is driving the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market growth.

The increasing collaboration between OSV operators and offshore energy companies is expected to drive further market growth. Investments in next-generation vessel designs, improved fuel efficiency, and compliance with evolving maritime safety regulations will play a crucial role in shaping the future of the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market.
