America’s Lifeline to Offshore Energy – It’s not just a motto, it’s our mission. 

The offshore service and maritime industries are essential to our nation's economy, providing the energy and resources needed to thrive. Powered by a diverse fleet of advanced vessels, these industries drive the core of America’s energy sector.

Our industry provides and creates well-paying, family-supporting jobs for thousands of Americans and strengthens national security by supplying skilled mariners and resources for the Merchant Marine, Navy, and Coast Guard.


OMSA effectively advocates for and protects the offshore industry by representing its members before Congress, the Coast Guard, and other government and regulatory agencies. We lead the way in promoting safety and progress within the offshore sector, serving as a unified voice on the diverse issues affecting the future of America’s offshore energy resources.


Finally, we actively uphold and advance the industry’s highest standards of safety and environmental protection.
