This report is unique to the industry as it provides an

Market Update, published by Infield Energy Analysts, has been revised and
updated and provides a global five year forecast from 2009.
The report brings together the Infield Offshore Energy Database, the
OFFPEX™ Market Modelling and Forecasting System and Infield's analytical expertise to produce a unique insight into the values, drivers and prospects for this fixed platform sector.
Infield's analysts have access to a unique data set on over 14,000 offshore platforms ranging from the massive gravity based facilities down to the smallest shallow water caisson structure in the US Gulf of Mexico.

Report Overview:
Infield retain a positive forecast for the period 2009 to 2013, seeing capital expenditure relating to the global fixed platform market in excess of US$80bn. This represents an increase of over fifty percent in expenditure levels as compared with the preceding period 2004 to 2008, which witnessed investment of US$54bn. This rise is driven by both sustained growth in an industry which has increased its regional diversity profile, and recent project cost escalation, all in the context of the rapid ascent, and subsequent collapse of crude prices, which peaked at $147 a barrel in July 2008 and haven’t moved above $55 since November 2008. All in all we expect over one-thousand eight hundred fixed platform installations in water depths up to a maximum of three hundred and seventy meters.
Whilst traditionally the most prolific fixed platform market has been that of the Gulf of Mexico, as the global economy has moved away from its established US – European axis, demand for energy has done likewise, and this has encouraged positive growth in many frontier hydrocarbon regions. It is no surprise then that Asia is forecast to see both the largest number of fixed platforms installed, and the largest amount of financial investment. On a country level, within Asia the performance of Vietnam, where a four-fold increase in installed fixed platform structures is forecasted over the next five years, is particularly notable. Globally in absolute installations we expect fixed platforms to have a constant annual growth rate of over two percent.
The report covers all fixed facilities including Caisson, Compliant Tower, Gravity, Gravity/Jack-Up, Guyed, Jack-Up, Piled, Skirt Plate and Suction Pile. Floating production systems and storage offloading systems are covered in other Global Perspective Market Update Reports.
