Oil& gas will play a key role in the energy transition

Outlook

The process of adapting to the energy transition will be complex and time consuming.

Oil & gas is a key contributor in all IEA's scenarios for future energy consumption.

Key challenges:

  • Oil & gas reservoirs depletes naturally as they are produced
  • The "easy" barrels are produced first and are gone

Key implications:

  • We need new discoveries and field developments
  • Maximizing production from existing assets
  • Maintaining existing infrastructure

Gas includes unabated and natural gas with CCUS

Global energy supply according to IEA (EJ)

Markets tightening in Brazil and the North Sea

  • North Sea market tightening as all five competitive vessels are booked for North Sea market tightening as all five competitive vessels are booked for work in 2022
  • work in 2022 • Only less competitive vessels available (stacked vessels including Safe Only less competitive vessels available (stacked vessels including Safe Scandinavia)

  • Petrobras is the largest client and its fleet of flotels (UMS) will increase from 5 to at least 6 next year based on the recent and announced tenders. Petrobras' current technical requirement effectively limits supply to newer and traditional DP3 semi-submersibles

  • Remaining available supply is stacked and/ or less competitive units

*Excluding vessels on contract in other regions. 2022: semis following Petrobras technical qualifications

North Sea market: High 2022 activity. Positive indicators

400

  • The NCS will continue to be attractive driven by cost competitiveness, low emissions, and long-term oriented regulators
  • Norwegian activity is increasing after the introduction of the tax package; More than 35 developments underway (primarily subsea)
  • Long-term view positive as illustrated by the recent APA round in Norway, where more than 50 licenses were awarded to more than 20 operators. Stable regulatory regime.
  • Electrification and Carbon Capture Storage (CCS) may add activity going forward

North Sea # Fields in production (source: Spinergie)

Brazil: Increasing activity and focus on high end vessels

  • 20 new FPSOs announced & planned to be installed over the next years
  • Some of existing fleet to be phased out but large potential in lifeextension projects
  • New FPSOs have additional topside weight & equipment (up to 60% to current FPSOs) and less space to carry out maintenance
  • Brazilian authorities are increasingly auditing asset integrity management of all FPSO operators in Brazil
  • Corrosive environment requiring continuous maintenance
