Overview

Green OSV Forum 2026

Date: 27-28 October 2026
Location: Pullman Kuala Lumpur City Centre Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The Green OSV Forum 2026 brings together the offshore support vessel community to explore the technologies, strategies and practical solutions driving the transition towards greener, smarter and more efficient OSV operations.

As the offshore and maritime industries move towards lower-carbon operations, vessel owners, operators, shipyards and technology providers are facing increasing pressure to improve energy efficiency, reduce emissions, adopt alternative power and propulsion technologies, and embrace digitalisation.

This two-day industry forum provides a platform for industry leaders, vessel owners and operators, shipyards, technology providers, regulators, classification societies and other key stakeholders to exchange insights, share experiences and discuss practical approaches to the future of OSV operations.

The programme will cover key developments in electrification, hybrid and battery technologies, digitalisation, AI, vessel data and sustainability, charging infrastructure, DP and vessel performance, and future OSV design.

Join us as the industry comes together to shape the next generation of greener and smarter offshore support vessels.

Forum Highlights
