Tuesday 12 April 2016, Amsterdam

This new 214 page report, now available on ASDReports, The Deepwater Drilling Market 2016-2026: CAPEX and Charter Spending for Drillships, Semi-Subs and Tender Rigs Rated Over 500m in Water Depth indicates that the deepwater drilling market will see $32.09bn in spending in 2016, including CAPEX and charter spending.

The lead analyst of the report said: “Due to low oil prices and vessel oversupply, 2016 is a weak year for the deepwater drilling sector. As contracts end and more newbuilds enter the market, charter rates likely still have further to fall in the immediate future. However, vessel ownership is still profitable even under the current market dynamics, and the long-term outlook for the sector is far more promising.”
