August 17, 2026 Bergen, Norway and Rio de Janeiro – Corvus Energy, global market leader in marine energy storage systems, has entered into a strategic partnership with Belga Marine, a distinguished maritime and offshore service provider based in Brazil, to deliver specialized local support, expert aftermarket battery system services, and on-the-ground spare parts storage to efficiently meet the needs of Brazil’s expanding fleet of battery-powered Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs).
Fast-growth Region for Offshore Energy and Battery-powered Vessels
Brazil is at the center of global offshore energy-sector growth—both traditional oil and gas projects and emerging renewable initiatives—driven by rising exploration and production demand, including equatorial margin expansion and new deepwater and ultra-deepwater exploration.
The country now boasts its largest-ever OSV fleet, with nearly 500 vessels currently in operation and many more anticipated in the near future. Notably, Petrobras is investing substantially in both decommissioning outdated assets and renewing the fleet, with over 40 new ships projected to enter service from 2027 onward.
Worldwide, hundreds of OSVs rely on Corvus Energy Storage Systems, including several hybrid vessels operating in Brazil. In line with growth projections for the Brazilian offshore sector, this number is expected to increase. To provide comprehensive service support for existing and upcoming vessels, Corvus Energy is partnering with Belga Marine.
