Gulf of Mexico Oil & Gas Decommissioning Market Analysis
The Gulf of Mexico Oil & Gas Decommissioning Market is expected to register a CAGR of less than 6.89% during the forecast period.
- The decommissioning market in shallow waters holds the largest market in recent years. But, the deepwater regions is expected to grow faster during 2020-2025, as the number of potential projects available in shallow waters is drying up.
- Deepwater projects are subject to greater levels of regulatory scrutiny and require specialized heavy-lift vessels to remove topsides. The unit cost to decommission deepwater projects is much greater, due to operational complexity and increased spread rates for marine vessels. The shift toward decommissioning deepwater facilities will present a range of new opportunities, as well as challenges for companies.
Gulf of Mexico Oil & Gas Decommissioning Market Trends
Deepwater to Register Highest Growth Rate
- The deepwater decommissioning segment is in better shape, significant growth of decommissioning in these waters remains unlikely in the foreseeable future.
- Deepwater projects require adherence to more stringent safety regulations and more investment in the form of purpose-built vessels. The equipment typically used for shallow water operations cannot be transferred for use in a deepwater environment. With the development of the deepwater market, the demand for new technologies, which reduce costs and provide better safety, is expected to grow exponentially.
- Therefore, deepwater decommissioning has better prospects during the forecast period, with the increase in oil prices and the development of affordable technologies, crucial to enabling the next phase in offshore removals and abandonment in the United States.
