Ship repair opportunities in the Indian Offshore Oil & Gas sector

Anand V Sharma Mantrana Maritime Advisory

Indian Ship Repair Industry - Overview

Unorganized Industry
Few Dedicated & Large Players Large number of smaller workshops working on Make shift arrangement

Old & Poor Infrastructure


Few drydocks added to cater to repair industry in last 2 decades Fleet increased multiple times, infrastructure did not grow to cater to demand

Great Potential for industry Little has been done on Infrastructure India has high technical resources & manpower
They all work for ship repair yards based in Middle East & Singapore

What is the opportunity size for repair service providers, especially offshore?

Floating Marine Assets in Indian Offshore

At any given point of time there are more than 900 marine assets operating in Indian offshore Share of Foreign Flagged Vessels
Offshore Drilling Rigs : - 45 Offshore Supply Vessels : - 250 Accommodation/ Construction/ Pipe laying Barges : 50 Others assets of low value, such as crew boats, tugs, etc

Every year roughly 200 foreign flag offshore vessels work on Indian coast on short term to long term contract Deployment period few weeks to months Most of them plan & undertake periodic dry docking prior to mobilization to India, however scope for a float repair remains

With So Much Opportunities, Why Infrastructure has not Come up?

Industry Introspection Ship repair


Basic Facts Capital Intensive + Skill Intensive + Policy Driven

Indian Scenario PSU Dominance of Public Sector Existence of Semi- Dedicated repair yards (CSL&HSL) Makeshift Repair Yards/Workshops existed with all major ports

Private Sector contribution Two Shipyards Chokhani on East Coast & Western India on West Coast came in 90s Chokhani closed down selling both the floating docks for scrap Western India survived with large losses

Every stake holder to the ship repair industry truly belived, ship repair is something India is not Capable of www.mantrana.in

Ship Repair (Mumbai Port Trust) A Case Study


Overview
Has 2 Dry Docks (several decades Old) One being closed down Has not undertaken major investment on docks in last few decades Total Turnover of Port more than INR 5 bn Share of Ship repair to revenue less than 3% No infrastructure other than dock & tower crane

Working Methodology
Acts as landlord & leases drydocks to workshops Drydock charges by port is based on GRT of the ship, no market driven rates Ships are being treated on First come first basis (except emergency repairs or for Naval Vessels) A barge with repair value less than INR 5 mn could get preference over Supply vessels of repair value more than INR 50 mn

Impact on port As shiprepair does not contribute to revenue, there is little development on agenda Even the business plan of port does not mention it www.mantrana.in

Ship Repair (Mumbai Port Trust) A Case Study


Impact on Working
After every repair contract the lease owner of drydock changes As owner ship by private party is short lived, there is no incentive to develop or invest on infrastructure Private workshops operate as make shift as owner ship is not more than few weeks Most of the workshop have their own infrastructure about 5 kms away from drydock In the absence of full-fledged shops for repair of machinery, piping, etc. The ship repair activity merely reduces to Steel renewal activity Rise in unproductive time and cost at the time of repair Cost of repair goes up Quality of repair comes down

What Should be Done?


Model adopted by Paradip Port is far better. Port develops basic drydock and gives it to a party (in this case currently to Wartsila) on a long term lease of 5 years to be renwed at revised rates. The operator invests in additional infrastructure, workshops, etc as it foresees recovery of investment and profits so invests in it. www.mantrana.in

Conclusion
Demand Supply Gap
Large local market however relatively small infrastructure to cater to them Lack of infrastructure limits availability of Technology, locally
