    Due to a downward spiral of the economy in oil and gas a few years ago. The investments for new facilities had been stunted. Recently, the capital allotment has empowered the deepwater rigs enough to support its rise.

    FREMONT, CA: The momentum is gradually building in the conventional oil and gas sector, as new significant projects kick off almost reaching the stage for final investment decision (FID). This year’s batch of FIDs falls short in comparison to the last year, but not by much. The wheels are turning again, and the mix is changing.

    The industry was unsurprisingly risk-averse in the early stages of the downturn; the focus was mainly on low cost and ROI from projects with vast reserves and long life. The trend has receded from then on with the introduction of capital earmarked for new projects.

    Deepwater FIDs moved along with attention on simplicity throughout the recession period. Most of the rigs were tie-backs to existing infrastructure, Zohr and Mad Dog were the rare examples of bigger developments when the majority of the projects were caught up in complex economic challenges.

    Deepwater Projects have Risen into Economic Relevance:

    As a change in philosophy can be so essential, the industry realized that the delays occurring in the execution of the project eroded its value significantly. Operators have focused on bringing fields on to the stream quicker via simple development concepts and homogeny. By breaking down the complex projects into numerous phases, the projects become successfully installed and the average time from FID to the first production has turned out to be less than three years.

    Among deepwater FIDs gas projects are more prominent as the new phase of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is underway, deepwater oil projects have also been moving toward sanctions. Many world-class projects with breakevens to match the tight oil supply of U.S. have been confirmed but collectively make up only a modest proportion of the oil supply required around 3 million barrels per day, which makes up one-fifth of the necessary quantity.

     A substantial amount of effort needs to be put in to reduce the costs of the deepwater, even if there are limits to what the industry can achieve on its own.

    Governments have to distinguish the role they can cooperate in to enrich the prospects in the sector. Oil and gas companies have been in thrall to capital discipline, and for the foreseeable future, will continue to do so, to be highly discriminatory while investing.
