These vessels transport essential consumables between an onshore supply base and offshore work locations. For instance, PSVs supply drilling fluids, fuel, cement, water, and other supplies such as casing, food, and spare parts.
- Platform supply vessels help meet the demands of construction and maintenance projects in deep offshore work locations. They are considered a vital necessity in the nature of operations and work at the high seas.
- Platform supply vessels are also used in case of oil spillage in the high seas. They can also can be used as suitable handy vessels with fire control & instrumentation.
