One of the surest and most obvious signs of an ailing industry, crippled by the challenges it is facing, is the profitability of its constituents. By this measure, the offshore oil and gas service sector has clearly not been in the pink of health for quite some time. Despite obstacles posed by costs and supply chain concerns, oil and gas companies will sanction more projects. Service companies will see more projects. The shifts in biding and contracting strategy will increase the chances of better project execution and delivery but will inevitably result in higher cost and longer leadtime to project owners

An important aspect of marine engineering operations involves vessel life extension. Decommissioning a vessel involves a complex and expensive process and with it, involves regulatory requirements for dismantling and disposal. Life extension can be more cost-effective and allows the asset to continue carrying a commercial advantage. The decision of both options heavily depends on physical considerations and engineering analysis.

The Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) industry is at the forefront of offshore oil and gas production, offering an efficient and flexible solution for extracting hydrocarbons from remote and deepwater locations. In this complex and high-stakes sector, the strategic process of yard and vendor selection holds paramount importance. Understanding the critical success factors for FPSO yard and vendor selection is essential for optimizing operations, mitigating risks, and ensuring the long-term success of FPSO projects.

In this presentation, we explore these factors with a focus on their correlation to the FPSO industry.

Offshore wind corresponds to 10% of green electricity generation and it grows at a yearly rate of 25%. Installed capacity has grown 10-fold between 2010 and 2020 (3,5 to 35GW) and is expected further growing to 300GW by 2040. Moreover, the offshore wind market is expected to grow between 2019 and 2027 from USD 36.07 Bn in 2019 to USD 87.5 Bn by 2026 (at an CAGR of 13.5%).

This presentation presents the challenges, methods and solutions to offshore wind operations.
