Subsea Control Systems - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2021 - 2026)

Market Overview

The global subsea control systems market is expected to witness a CAGR of over 2% during the forecast period, 2020-2025. Factors, such as deep-water and ultra-deep-water exploration and production, are likely to drive the subsea control systems market in the forecast period. However, harsh environmental conditions will make it difficult to install, maintain, and replace the subsea control systems, which are expected to have some amount of negative impact on the market studied, during the forecast period.

• The deep-water and ultra-deep-water segments accounted for a significant market share in 2018, and it is likely to dominate the market during the forecast period.
• Increasing deep-water activities in countries, like Brazil, Egypt, the United States, Iran, and Qatar, is likely to create several opportunities for the subsea control systems market in the forecast period.
• South America has dominated the subsea control systems market, and the majority of the demand is coming from Brazil due to its recent deep-water and ultra-deep-water activities, and is likely to dominate the market in the forecast period.

Key Market Trends

Deep-water and Ultra Deep-water to Dominate the Market

• The deep-water and ultra-deep-water activities directly influence the subsea control systems market in the offshore. After oil prices fell in 2014, many countries shifted toward onshore projects. Still, it turned out that the return of the investment period of onshore projects is 10-15 years. Thus, the nations, like Brazil, the United States, and Egypt, started deep-water and ultra-deep-water explorations, which have a return period of 5-6 years, are more profitable, and are likely to drive the subsea control systems market in the forecast period.
• After 2015, the offshore rig count of the world increased significantly and is likely to have a positive impact on subsea control systems as they are used in offshore.
• In 2018, Royal Dutch Shell started production from its deep-water field, Kaikias, in the Gulf of Mexico. In phase 1, it drilled three wells that were completed in 2018, and phase 2 is expected to start in the coming years. Phase 1 of the project uses subsea control systems from Deep Down Inc. Phase 2 is likely to create more opportunities for the subsea control systems market in the forecast period.
• In December 2019, Chevron Corporation announced to develop the Anchor Project in the Gulf of Mexico, which will be the first deep-water and high-pressure project of the oil and gas industry. This project will be needing advancement in the subsea control system for the high-pressure environment and is expected to drive the subsea control systems market in the forecast period.
• The West Delta Deep Marine project in Egypt is in its development phase. Royal Dutch Shell announced in 2019 to do drilling at Montu well, which will be the deepest well in Egypt. This opens various opportunities in Egypt for the subsea control systems market in the forecast period.
• Therefore, with the increase in the deep-water and ultra-deep-water exploration and production activities, the subsea control systems are likely to witness significant demand during the forecast period.
