Devices
that helps the anchorage of the floating vessels or ships and platforms across
all kind of water depths is known as offshore mooring system. A mooring line or
an anchor attach the ship to the sea floor and it is important and critical for
subsea production facilities. Wires, synthetic fiber ropes and chains or all
the three together are used to make mooring lines. The global offshore mooring
system is used in oil rigs, for extraction of oil from sea and transferring the
oil onto ships. An offshore mooring system is also used in oil wells to extract
crude oil.
The
material type used in a particular mooring system is determined by
environmental factors like currents, waves and wind. The rapid growth in energy
industry and oil & gas will help in the rise of the overall global offshore
mooring market. The increasing energy demand worldwide and increasing focus on
clean electricity is expected to actuate the global market for offshore mooring
system. Also, with the increase in per capita consumption of energy due to
rising population will help to drive the market for offshore mooring system.
Lack of technical knowledge, high investments and crude environment conditions
under the sea will affect the market growth, however with the advancements in
the technology, safety measures and training, the market is expected to grow at
a decent pace.
The
offshore mooring system is segmented on the basis of type into taut leg system,
single point mooring, spread mooring, semi-taut leg system and dynamic
positioning mooring. The offshore mooring system is further bifurcated on the
basis of anchorage includes vertical load anchors, suction anchors and drag
embedment anchors. The market is also divided by application into SPAR,
floating production storage & offloading (FPSO), tension leg, floating
liquefied natural Gas (FLNG) and semi-submersible platforms. On the basis of
depth the offshore mooring market can be segmented by shallow (<1000 m) and
deep/ultra-deep (>1000 m). The global offshore mooring market is also
bifurcated on the basis of regions into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific,
South America and Middle East & Africa.
Offshore
mooring systems consist of anchors, shackles, hooks, risers, connectors, buoys
and synthetic ropes. Research organizations and different companies are taking
initiatives that contributes the development of the offshore mooring systems
for precise operations. The integration of mooring systems with information
technology and automation is driving the growth of the market by facilitating
better precision of the operations, maximizing safety measures, reducing human
efforts and data collection. Development of vessels such as FLNG, production,
FPSO, drilling, storage, (FDPSO).and floating has boost the growth in the
market for offshore mooring.
Positive
growth events for the industry can be seen due to newly explored oil reserves
in South China Sea, Brazil, Arctic region and North Sea. Many players from
Japan, Australia and China are introducing themselves in the market with
improved mooring systems solutions. The demand for drilling activities and
subsea exploration are increasing with the rise in energy demand. Due to
increase in the investments in deep, shallow and ultra-deep water research by
the new companies, Europe market is growing. Decent growth can be seen in the
Asia Pacific market for offshore mooring. Due the availability of crude oil
wells in the Middle East, the market is expected to grow as well. Subsea
activity can benefit the growth of the market in South America. The global
offshore mooring market is dominated by North America and Europe majorly.
Though, the key facilities of offshore production are located in the South
America, Africa and Middle East but new projects are initiated in the Asia
Pacific.
