Market Overview
The Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 7% during the forecast period of 2022-2027. The COVID-19 pandemic affected the market negatively. The pandemic led to the downsizing of offshore oil and gas and offshore wind farm projects due to a decline in demand, which in turn affected the offshore support vessel market. Factors such as the increasing installation of offshore wind farms and rising deepwater development activities driven by the declining production from the mature fields are likely to drive the offshore support vessel market. However, rising demand for dynamic positioning drilling rigs and increasing pressure on day rate, are expected to restrain the market for offshore support vessels during the forecast period.
- AHT/AHTS are likely to dominate in the market during the forecast period owing to their significant advantages over other types.
- The region is witnessing an increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, such as wind energy. Asia-Pacific region has a significant potential for wind energy in the offshore region which is likely to present significant opportunities to the players involved in the market. Also, rising oil and gas activity ranging from exploration and production to decommissioning of rigs is also expected to present opportunities.
- China is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period owing to increasing activity in the renewables sectors as well as the oil and gas sector.

Key Market Trends
Anchor Handling Tug/Anchor Handling Towing Supply (AHT/AHTS) Vessels to Dominate the Market
- AHTS is a naval vessel that is solely concerned with the objective of either tugging or towing an oil-rig or a ship. They differ from Platform Supply Vessels in being fitted with winches for towing and anchor handling, having an open stern to allow the decking of anchors, and having more power to increase the bollard pull.
- Due to such benefits, AHTS vessels are preferred over other types of offshore support vessels and are being increasingly manufactured and deployed to sites.
- In March 2022, Perdana Petroleum secured vessel charter contracts worth RM 9.6 million from Petronas Carigali to provide three units of anchor handling tug and supply vessels with crew and equipment to perform 24-hours services for assisting and servicing drilling rigs, offshore installation, derricks barges, towing and anchor jobs.
- In December 2021, Santos WA Energy Ltd. contracted two Solstad Offshore Anchor Handling Tug Supply vessels to support the drilling activities in Australia. The contracts are expected to start in the second quarter of 2022 and have an estimated duration of 390 days.
- Thus, considering the above-mentioned points, it can be concluded that the AHTS vessels are likely to dominate the market during the forecast period.

China Expected to Dominate the Market
- China is one of the major economies in the Asia-Pacific region. The country has active interests in the oil and gas industry and is seeing a transformation towards renewables, including offshore wind farms.
- China has active oil and gas interests in the South China sea and is engaged in exploration and production in several blocks all over the South China Sea. In September 2021, China National Offshore Oil Corporation announced the discovery of an oilfield in Bohai Sea with an estimated reserve of crude oil exceeding 100 million tonnes. Similar activities are underway, which will drive the offshore support vessels market as such vessels are needed during the exploration as well as the production phase of a basin.
- Apart from oil and gas, China is also rapidly adopting renewable energy in its power mix to limit emissions in its economy. The country has an enormous installed capacity of offshore wind farms, and several more are in various stages of construction.
- In January 2022, MingYang Smart Energy Group received an order to supply 11 MW offshore wind turbines for the 600-MW Qingzhou 1 and 400-MW Qingzhou 2 sites, located in deep waters offshore of Guangdong.
- According to the National Energy Administration of China, the installed capacity of offshore wind power stood at 9 GW in 2020 as compared to 1.03 GW in 2015.
- Considering the above mentioned points, China is expected to dominate in the Asia-Pacific offshore support vessels market during the forecast period.
