The North Sea Offshore Decommissioning Report Bharatbook added a new report on " The North Sea Offshore Decommissioning Report " which gives an overview, Demand, Supply Trends and industry analysis reports. The time for many North Sea offshore oil and gas platforms to be decommissioned is fast approaching; more than 470 platforms will have to be wholly or partially removed from North Sea waters over the next 30 years - a vast series of projects which could put enormous amounts of pressure on the supply chain. However, if the industry is well prepared there will be major opportunities and rewards for participation in the sector. The North Sea Offshore Decommissioning Report by Douglas-Westwood and Deloitte Petroleum Services Group, provides the essential information for those decision-makers in oil companies and contracting & supply industries, government departments and financial institutions on the expenditure required to carry out the imminent task. Likely expenditure This second edition of The North Sea Offshore Decommissioning Report is expanded to cover the entire North Sea area, with a concise account of the most pressing issues related to decommissioning in the region's waters. Likely expenditure is considered through two scenarios which account for changing offshore lift technologies and the associated variable onshore costs. The first scenario presents a 'business as usual' situation whereby existing heavy lift vessels are used to carry out decommissioning projects. The second scenario assumes a step change in offshore lifting technology and the development of Super Heavy Lift Vessels (SLVs) that are capable of lifting upwards of 15,000 tonnes. The bottom-up Douglas-Westwood cost forecast generated from these scenarios covers all decommissioning aspects from the plugging and abandonment of subsea wells to onshore deconstruction and recycling. Attention is also paid to specialist equipment requirements and the locations to which decommissioned infrastructure can be sent for disposal, re-use and/or recycling. http://bharatbook.com/market-research-reports/oil-andgas-market-research-report/the-north-sea-offshore-decommissioning-report.html Future prospects The North Sea Offshore Decommissioning Report provides an overview of future prospects. It reviews current North Sea offshore platforms as well as the existing regulatory regime - including a focus on decommissioning obligations, procedures and trends. In addition, the report focuses on current and proposed key technologies and is reinforced by case studies. industry analysis reports The supply chain This innovative report examines the decommissioning services supply chain focusing on key issues including current and potential supply chain gaps. In both scenarios the demand on the supply chain differs, however early preparation for the upcoming opportunity is shown to be essential given figures presented within the report. Market forecasts
