This new major world-wide report published by energy analysts Infield Systems is the only market report for this sector that not only uses the list of announced World floating production system prospects, but also uses a detailed analysis of the offshore fields discovered which are being planned or considered for floating production development. This allows Infield's analytical team to provide detailed forecasts over five & ten year periods for units and values for the World market in Floating Production systems.
 
The Floating Production report provides an allocation of CAPEX in each year it is spent. This introduces into the forecast, spend for projects that will come on stream outside the forecast period, which is important when considering their long lead times.
Market Update - Through the period 1999/03 77 floating production systems were used to develop 68 fields. The cost for these systems was US$19.6bn. Over the next five years Infield forecasts that 138 floating production systems will be installed with an expected capital expenditure of US$32.8bn. This is a 67% growth on the previous five years.
FPSOs & FPSs - There are 119 FPSOs and FPSs operating around the world, with a further 22 under construction or conversion and 139 prospects being considered from 2004 onwards. Infield has identified that 65% of forecasted projects for the period to 2008 will be converted or upgraded vessels.
TLPs & Spars - There are currently 23 TLP's and Spars in operation, globally, a further four installed on the field two installed on the field awaiting to go into production, five under construction and 20 being considered for development
