The Market - Global Floating Production Capex to Double
Douglas-Westwood (DW) forecast that between 2013 and 2017 $91bn will be spent
on floating production systems (FPS) - an increase of 100% over the preceding
five-year period. This growth is driven by factors such as a larger proportion
of newbuilds and conversions compared to redeployments, a greater degree of
local content resulting in increased costs and general offshore industry cost
inflation.
Floating Production is firmly established as a cost-effective method of
developing oil and gas fields around the world. In water depths beyond 500m
floating production systems become one of the few options open to operators,
an increasingly important factor as production moves into deeper waters. DW
forecast that 63% of global FPS market spend will be in deep waters.
FPSOs represent by far the largest segment of the market both in numbers (94
installations) and forecast Capex (80%) over the 2013-2017 period. FPSSs
account for the second largest segment of Capex (10%), followed by TLPs, then
spars.
Latin America accounts for 29% of the forecast installations and 37% of the
projected Capex. Most installations to date have been in Petrobras-operated
fields off Brazil and this is likely to continue, albeit substantial delays
are expected for Petrobras' offshore E&P investment. Asia is the next most
important region in numerical terms (24), but Africa is so in terms of
forecast Capex ($18.2bn).
Modelling & Forecast Generation
Analysis is based on DW's in-house Oil & Gas database which details around
1,000 FPS projects. The data feeds into the market model to generate forecasts
of floating production systems in each region of the world. Expenditure is
allocated both to year of order and year of installation.
