Emergency response and rescue vessels are increasingly seeing application in the defense, oil and gas, and marine sectors. Improvements in maneuverability, equipment and accessories useful for all kinds of situations is anticipated to boost the market through the forecast period.

Growing Demand in Gas Drilling and Offshore Oil Activities to Propel Emergency Response and Rescue Vessels Demand

Growing demand for emergency response and rescue vehicles in the ever expanding offshore oil and gas drilling industry is anticipated to be one of the primary factors driving the growth of the market in the upcoming years, owing to concerns over crew rescues and oil spill recoveries at rigs.

The growing industry of ship building for fishing and commercial purposes is also contributing to the growth of the emergency response and rescue vessels market. In addition, apart from applications in the military, marine tourism is also seeing a growth spurt in recent times, consequently building on a larger requirement for emergency response and rescue vessels.

The growing number of natural disasters (nearly by 4 times in the last 30 years) arising such as earthquakes and hurricanes are resulting in increasing amounts of loss in property and human life in recent years. This has created a massive increase in requirements for emergency response and rescue vessels by disaster response organizations worldwide, creating lucrative opportunities for market players.
