Limited change in EP spending

After reviewing oil companies’ most recent spending plans, we estimate offshore spending growth of c7% YOY for 2024, in line with our November update. Growth is concentrated, with Petrobras being the key driver, favouring service companies with Brazil exposure. Looking ahead, further spending growth is likely to be partly limited by total spending already being on a par with operating cash flow. Delayed energy transition spending is seen as positive for oil services, while recent E&P consolidati...

Total spending is seen up 31% compared to the previous plan, driven by downstrea...

High dayrates in Petrobras PLSV tender

Bids have been opened for the large Petrobras PLSV tender, with the key takeaway the solid dayrates offered, supporting our view that PLSVs likely will be key earnings contributors in the coming years for companies active in Brazil, namely Subsea7, DOF (via its 50% of DOFCON) and Paratus (via its 50% of Seabras). While it is unclear how many vessels Petrobras will award under this tender, we believe the high dayrates and solid industry discipline are key. For high-spec PLSVs that are mostly offe...
