What are the Drivers of Demand in this Market?
The offshore industry has grown recently, creating a significant demand for these vessels for the identification of potential subareas for oil drilling operations. Further, end users are increasingly turning to natural gas for their fuel needs due to growing concerns about the damaging impacts of petroleum fuel on the environment.
This has pushed the development of several regasification and liquefaction terminals by encouraging the offshore sectors to step up their efforts to extract natural gas and gain a significant market share. The seismic support vessel market is anticipated to expand at a remarkable rate given the rising need for natural gas.
Due to worries about national security, several nations have raised their defense spending, which is expected to spur the development of seismic support vessels. Manufacturers in the market are carefully integrating technology with these research vessels to offer superior features, such as a large work desk, reduced noise, high functionality, low fuel consumption, and increased accommodation capacity for guaranteeing precise geological surveys even in bad weather conditions.
This is done because they are aware of the scope and financial potential that the defense industry offers. The market is expected to benefit from chances for sustained growth as a result in the coming years.
Recent Development
The industry is dominated by certain players owing to their more capital investment. Significant players operating in the market include Ulstein Group ASA, Sanco Shipping AS, Salt Ship Design, Swire Pacific Offshore Operations (Pte) Ltd, Cemre Shipyard, Rederji Groen, Naval Dynamics, Damen Shipyards Group, and Tananger Offshore AS. Mergers and acquisitions, new product launches, and feature enhancements have been the primary strategies of the players to secure their position in the market.
Recently, Bourbon Offshore in collaboration with Bureau Veritas and Kongsberg Maritime conducted remote testing of an application capable of remote surveying, Dynamic Systems (DP systems), which fetches valuable intelligence actively from the control systems of the ships and transmits it to the auditors through a secured cloud infrastructure. The newly developed application is expected to bring automation to the survey process and offer continuous monitoring, as opined in the seismic support vessel industry analysis.
GC Rieber Shipping has negotiated the agreements for early delivery of Ernest Shackleton, an icebreaking research vessel, from the British Antarctic Survey. On the closure of this agreement, Rieber anticipates a positive cash in-flow by employing the vessel before the expected period.
In 2018, France’ CGG delivered Geowave Voyager to SeaBird Exploration, a key player, which is equipped with a 40 Km streamer and is renamed Eagle Explorer. The companies have entered into a 160-day agreement for the operation of this vessel as a source vessel.
Regional Outlook
In terms of the geographical reach of the market, it is said that economies with longer coastlines are expected to have a larger market share. South East Asia & the Pacific and China are expected to remain the most attractive regions in the global market.
These regions register high demand, which is driven by the demand from the offshore oil & gas industry. However, in terms of production, Europe and North America are expected to hold prominent shares in the market due to the high demand for these vessels in the geological survey and defense sectors.
Moreover, Latin America is also estimated to grow at a significant growth rate over the forecast period, owing to improvements in the logistics and marine industry in the region.
