This enables the Group to capture earnings upsides through the sale of both newbuilds and existing ageing vessels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Complementing this, the Group\u2019s in-house shipbuilding capabilities provide a sustainable and flexible vessel supply, supporting newbuild sales when market opportunities arise, or enabling fleet expansion to grow a recurring income base as appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Looking forward, offshore activities and demand for OSVs remain robust. Offshore engineering, procurement, construction and installation (\u201cEPCI\u201d) expenditure is expected to increase meaningfully in 2026, with spending projected to rise 32% to US$71 billion. At the same time, ageing fleet and limited newbuild appetite underscore a tightening supply outlook.\u00b9<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWith an ageing global OSV fleet, the Group continues to see increasing demand for newbuilds. Earlier this year, the Group successfully secured its first shipbuilding contract for four OSVs in more than a decade. We view this newbuild sale as a further encouraging signal of emerging shipbuilding demand.\u201d Mr. Leong added.<\/p>\n<p><a
