Market Driver
The global shift towards renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and geothermal, is driving economic, social, and environmental development. According to the US Energy Information Administration, renewable energy consumption is projected to grow at an annual rate of 3.1% between 2018 and 2050, compared to 0.6% for petroleum and other liquids, 0.4% for coal, and 1.1% for natural gas. This trend is hindering the growth of the oil and gas industry, creating opportunities for the offshore decommissioning market. Countries like the Philippines are leading the way, with Mindanao's power mix expected to increase its renewable energy share from 40% to further increase during the forecast period. Fluctuating crude oil prices, depleting resources, and environmental concerns are also fueling the demand for clean energy sources. The European Union aims to reach a 27% renewable energy share by 2030, reducing dependence on fossil fuels for power generation. This shift will decrease the number of new oil and gas drilling projects and minimize the adoption of Enhanced Oil Recovery methods. Investments in renewable energy will positively impact the offshore decommissioning market, as the need for decommissioning oil and gas wells increases.
Offshore decommissioning refers to the process of safely removing and disposing of obsolete oil and gas infrastructure in the sea. This market is currently experiencing trends in liability management for abandoned oil wells and pipelines, conductors, and sub-infrastructure. The primary and secondary phases involve platform preparation, permitting and regulatory approval, conductor and platform removal, materials disposal, and site clearance. Technologies like enhanced oil recovery through gas injection and polymer insertion are used. Project management, engineering, and permitting are crucial. Derrick barges, pipeline decommissioning, power cables, and manufacturing facilities are key components. Operational costs increase with shallow, deepwater, and ultradeepwater depths. Natural gas and crude oil prices impact the market. International footprints face challenges from lockdown measures and quarantine restrictions. Skilled operators are essential for cement plugs, wellbore, reservoir, and fluid-bearing formations. The supply chain includes billions in costs for abandoned oil wells.

Challenges
Offshore oil and gas wells with maturing or aging assets can become costly non-performers, as operating expenses surpass revenue generated. The
OSPAR Convention assigns decommissioning responsibility to the well owner, adding to the challenge. Decommissioning costs depend on the weight of materials to be removed, which is a significant expense. Transparency and communication between industry and government, as well as stakeholder consultation, are essential. However, the precise calculation of decommissioning costs is complex due to factors like material condition changes, risks, market volatility, personnel loss, industry experience, supply chain inflation, information management systems, and technical data. These variables contribute to the high cost of offshore decommissioning projects, potentially hindering market growth during the forecast period.
Offshore decommissioning involves retiring obsolete offshore structures and sub-infrastructure, including pipelines, conductors, and platforms. The primary and secondary phases include platform preparation, conductor removal, and platform removal. Challenges include liability, permitting and regulatory hurdles, and project management. Depth is a factor, with challenges in shallow,
deepwater, and ultradeepwater depths. Offshore regions face unique issues like operational costs, natural gas, and abandoned oil wells. Engineering and permitting are crucial, as are derrick barges for pipeline decommissioning and power cable removal. International footprints bring logistical challenges due to lockdown measures and quarantine restrictions. Crude oil prices and supply chain disruptions also impact the market. Skilled operators are needed for cement plugs, wellbore abandonment, and reservoir management in fluid-bearing formations.

1.1 Shallow water- The shallow water segment of the global offshore decommissioning market is expected to experience significant growth due to several factors. Traditionally, shallow water was defined as water up to 400-500 feet (122-152 meters) deep. Jackup rigs, submersibles, and drill barges are commonly used for decommissioning in this segment. Jackups, which can rest on the seabed, are the most practical option for water up to 400-500 feet deep. Their age, specifications, location, and weather conditions determine their suitability. As jackups with deeper capabilities compete with semi-submersibles, cost becomes a critical factor. Submersibles, which can operate in very shallow water, are lifted out of the water before transportation. Extremely shallow water, such as inland lakes, is suitable for drill barges, which are towed by tugboats and lack the clearance above the water surface to withstand severe storms. These factors are driving the growth of the shallow water offshore decommissioning market.
