What are the key features of offshore support vessels?Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs) are the lifeline of offshore operations, built to transport people, equipment, and essential supplies to rigs, platforms, and wind installations in some of the world’s most challenging environments. Their advanced systems, such as dynamic positioning, specialised cargo handling gear, and integrated safety equipment, demand more than basic seamanship. To operate or work on an OSV, crews need specialised offshore training in areas like navigation, crane operations, and emergency response. |
