With the oil and gas industry moving into ever deeper, harsher, and more remote waters around the world, established E&P technology is being pushed to the limits of its proven performance threshold. Many companies and leading business executives having noted this trend will have considered options to expand or increase their company's market share in the years ahead.

The team then packaged these two aspects together in a concise report which was used by the client's senior management in their considerations around this investment decision.
