Market Update
Reports provide forecasts and analysis of prospective
developments tracked on the Offshore Energy Database. Using the OED
for the base data the markets are modelled through OFFPEX providing
forecasts of units and capital expenditure over 5 and 10 year periods.
The robust nature of the model provides versatility allowing a variety
of views of the markets. This allows analysts and managers the opportunity
to assess markets with the confidence that
the data is:
- Thoroughly researched - each field is analysed
- Based on all available information
Each report is over 170 pages long with chapters concentrating on
regions and sectors. Providing information on countries, operators,
fields, The reports cover historical data from our comprehensive database
of fields, companies and contracts. The Forecast is our view of the
most likely development scenario for fields under development or due
to be developed in the period and the costs and scheduling associated
with them.
Due to the increased uncertainty associated with developments beyond
a five-year horizon, the terminology of prospects is used. Prospects
includes the latest available information on longer-term developments
beyond the forecast period to 2008. Whilst the period to 2012 is usually
modelled within the OFFPEX™ system it is better to view this
latter period as a trend indicator rather than a definitive statement
or forecast |
