Note: Overview per 25.04.2025. Excluding vessels leaving SEA1 management during Q1-Q2 2025
Forecasts for the global economy and oil demand are positive for 2025 and 2026, however the recent and rapid shifts in trade related policies between key economies have introduced further uncertainty
In the construction support vessel market, a handful of long-term tenders and requirements have recently been launched by the EPC companies for commencement in 2026 and 2027. The market is still tight with only 2-3 larger vessels having availability during 2025. Following an expectation for long-term demand for construction support vessels, additional newbuilding contracts for delivery in 2027 have been placed by market participants
The North Sea AHTS market was slow at the start of the quarter. Monthly average rates were on par with last year for January, lower in February and higher in March. At the end of March, the AHTS market was nearly sold out and rates increased sharply. Project activity remains good for the season and the AHTS market is expected to gain momentum over the next months, however, with high volatility in the spot market
The semi rig activity in Australia will see a temporary decrease in 2025, which may result in more available support vessels in the region or migration of vessels to other regions. This could, in the short term, lead to regional pressure on rates and utilization before we see new rig activity, which is expected in 2026
Moderate further growth in the OSV market is expected for the rest of the year. A tight supply side in the subsea vessel segment is expected to
continue as there is a limited number of newbuilds to be delivered in the short term
