Floating Production Market Update Report 2008 2012
 
   


The fourth Edition of this Floating Production Market Report, published by Infield Energy Analysts, provides a world wide in-depth analysis of the global floating production systems sector. $34bn is forecast to be spent over the next five years.

The Global Perspectives Floating Production Systems Market Update Report 2008-2012 is an in-depth independent analysis of the global floating production system market. This is the fourth edition published by Infield Energy Analysts and has been completely updated to include new prospects, to provide a global five year forecast from 2008.

This is the only world wide market report for this sector that not only uses the list of announced floating production system prospects from the Infield Offshore Energy Database, but also uses a detailed analysis of the fields discovered which are being planned or considered for Floating Production system development. This allows Infield's analytical team to provide detailed and comprehensive forecasts over five & ten year periods for floating production system units and values which are unavailable from other sources.

Report Overview:

Infield Energy Analysts forecast that capital expenditure for the floating production market will exceed $34bn over the next five years, an increase of 25% over the previous five years. 2007 was seen as a year of consolidation, but during 2008 expenditure will reach similar record levels seen in 2006 and is expected to exceed this $6bn record in 2009. Going forward Infield forecasts that the year on year growth will be 4.3%. It is the deep and ultra-deepwater sector that will command a
significant percentage of this spend.

At the end of 2007 there were 264 operational floating production systems of which 135 were brought on line during 2003/07. Over the next five years a further 175 units are expected to be brought in to operation. Infield's unique research allows the inclusion the “speculative” units which are currently in the yards, but as yet do not have an assigned project.

We expect activity in Africa to continue to dominate both numbers and expenditure in floating production as deepwater and, increasingly, shallow water activities are expected to accelerate. Future activity in Asia should establish this region as the second largest region in FPS market sector.

Activity in the FPS sector is one of the key indices of the health of the offshore industry and as a result increasing levels of investment and innovation indicate that the offshore industry
will be able to extract resources from the most challenging regions. Infield expects that as the global fleet continues to grow, opportunities for consolidation and alternative strategies for ownership and development will present themselves and we could see further structural change in the floating production sector. These issues and the value of FPS market are discussed and detailed in length in the Global Perspectives Floating roduction Market Update 2008/12 Report.
