But, it will still be shy of its former $46 billion self.IntegrationA big trend is the success of the integrated contractors – the likes of Subsea 7 and OneSubsea’s Subsea Integration Alliance and McDermott and Baker Hughes’ alliance, offering SURF and subsea production systems (SPS) in one contract. They’ve boomed (relatively) globally since Q4 2018. But, they’ve also been raising eyebrows, says Bjørvik.Some 50% of the subsea tree awards have been through
