The OSA-bay is a side bay of Yule Bay on the Pennell Coast of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . To the west of Tapsell Foreland , it represents the inlet of the O'Hara Glacier into Yule Bay.
Scientists from the German expedition GANOVEX I (1979–1980) named it.
The abbreviation OSA stands for Offshore Supply Association , a subsidiary of DDG "Hansa" and VTG AG at the time , from which the expedition ship Schepelsturm , originally built as a supplier , was chartered.
