Concern
Is this a good business ? Why ?
Demand driver - oil prices, production platforms, operational drilling rigs, day rates and fresh E&P activity. Cyclic business due to high volatility in oil prices.
High Capital Intensive business vessel.
Cash Inflow when vessels are in operations.
USD 50000 per vessel per day
Cash Outflow when vessel not in use (Dry dock expenditure).
USD 6500 per vessel per day dry dock charge.
Past decade Regulation in offshore hiring of vessels - favorable to company Current shipping lobby tilting towards Indian shipyards cause of concern
Low threat of entry - current status - uncertain.
Increased bargaining power of Clients regulation and bid - price slash 30-40% Offshore activities - shallow water that favours small and mid-sized DSVs. Deep water drilling is future that requires large sized DSVs. Operation and maintenance cost increases with age of fleet.
