Market and outlook

  • Strong demand increase in 2022 on work related to tie-back and life extension projects
  • Market utilisation for the most advanced accommodation vessels increasing from 30 to 70 per cent in the past year
  • The North Sea market is expected to be weak in 2023 with low visibility and opportunities moving from 2023 to 2024
  • Capex and modification costs for ongoing and new contracts will impact EBITDA and liquidity in 2023
  • Favourable outlook in core Brazil and North Sea markets. Increasing tender activity and ongoing client discussions for 2024 and into 2027

“A strong third quarter was reflected in high utilisation, improved EBITDA and good cash conversion,” says Jesper K. Andresen, CEO of Prosafe. “I would like to thank our team for their dedication to ensuring strong operations. We continue to build backlog with the award of the contract in US Gulf of Mexico, clients declaring options and our recent submittal of the most competitive bid for a new contract in Brazil.

The demand outlook in our core markets is favourable but timing remains uncertain. We maintain our focus on securing utilisation for our open vessels in 2023. In Brazil, we see increased activity next year, while North Sea tendering activity is more focused in 2024 and beyond.”
