Floating Production – A Growing Segment in Transition

developed in South Korea and Europe.Finally, we are seeing a trend of certain key players in the floating production segment to leverage their expertise for executing challenging and large projects in deep water into the floating wind space, including Petrobras, Shell, TotalEnergies, Equinor, CNOOC, SBM Offshore, MODEC and BW Offshore.Competing for the Same Supply ChainsThe growth in activity in both the floating production and the floating wind segments will drive increased demand for engineering services, shipyard and port capacity, mooring system supply, dynamic subsea cables and specialist installation

Indeed, following the work with NPCC, in 2018, Marine Tech has also delivered an RSV Sea Observer Compact, at 3.2m-long, with a BlueROV2 onboard to IMODCO (an offshore loading terminal technology firm owned by floating production technology company SBM Offshore). For IMODCO, it’s being used as part of the maintenance of offshore loading/offloading buoys, including single mooring line surveys. Again, it’s still being used since going into work two years’ ago.  “We’ve been working nearly 10 years in this field,&rdquo
