North Sea hit hardest

  • North Sea was one of the hardest hit regions during the downturn
  • ~ 65% fall from 2013 peak
  • Current activity is largely related to hook-up and commissioning (HUC) projects awarded prior to 2015
  • Next round HUC projects expected to commence beyond 2020
  • The rebound in MMO expected to begin from 2019 driven by accumulating maintenance need on aging infrastructure

International markets will be increasingly important

Mexico

  • Mexico is dominated by MMO activity
  • Majority of activity is related to fixed platforms in shallow, benign waters relatively close to shore
  • Although historically HUC was not a primary demand driver, this may change – although likely beyond 2020
  • Supply in Mexico has been falling due to units being removed from the market

Brazil: Anticipate tender activity

  • Petrobras technical specifications ('GTD') have evolved substantially since 2010 – some of the highest requirements of any operator
  • 9 vessels of 8 owners operating in 2015
  • Presently 5 vessels contracted, reducing to 1 vessel by mid-2018
  • Anticipated tender activity to address vessel shortage
  • With demand forecasted to be in the 5 - 6 unit range, this will be a demand driver in the next 6 -18 months, although completion will be prevalent

GTD: General Technical Description (minimum technical requirements)

Prospects and tendering – Prosafe business intel

  • Seven tenders ongoing for 2018 through 2020 – one in the North Sea
  • The prospect list with a three-year look-out remains at a relatively high level
  • 23 prospects with high probability of going to tender

Tenders and Prospects - outlook is generally three years

P90, P50 and P10 are prospects probability of moving to a tender. Source: Prosafe
