The World ROV Market Forecast 2011-2015

 

Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/15/2012 -- Strong growth in demand for ROV support of offshore operations is anticipated over the forecast period 2011-2015, driven by a significant rise in offshore exploration and subsea field development activity.

Although ROVs are used in many sectors ranging from academic research to military applications and salvage, the largest commercial user is the offshore oil & gas industry, where they have become an essential tool for deepwater operations. This was clearly demonstrated recently in the subsea work to cap the Macondo blow-out in the US Gulf of Mexico.

In the primary offshore oil & gas activity sector a long period of high oil prices and surging deepwater activity has driven orders for offshore drilling rigs to numbers not seen for decades. These rigs, together with large numbers of subsea construction vessels coming into the market in the years ahead, will drive ROV demand to new highs.
