Petrobras FPSO delays may hit service volumes but lengthen cycle
Being the largest global consumer of deepwater oil services, Petrobras’ strategic plans tend to get investor attention. On the positive side, its latest 5-year plan sees 5% higher E&P spending than the previous one, and has a more stable phasing between the years, which is supportive for the cycle duration. However, several FPSOs are facing significant delays, which is on the downside for oil services, leading to delays for deepwater oilfield services (primarily drilling and subsea), likely resulting in lower ‘peak volumes’ and demand being spread over a longer period. The rig count is said to be 25–30, versus 33 currently contracted. Pipe volumes are also down 11% from the previous plan to 8,000km. In sum, the new plan is positive for the longevity of the cycle but caps ‘peak demand’.Aker Solutions is a provider of products, systems and services to the oil and gas industry.
