One of the key drivers for the Malaysian OSV market continues to be PETRONAS, and its plans to develop hydrocarbons offshore with investment of RM5 billion for development of marginal fields and RM 15 billion for the North Malay Basin project.
Recent deals such as the Berantai Oil Field Project which totals US$800million.
Petronas Carigali and Shell Malaysia to carry out the world’s biggest offshore Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) projects in Sabah and Sarawak with total investment of US$12billion which raises the recovery factor to 50% from 36%.
PETRONAS' expenditure plans at this stage are two pronged; development of deep water reserves offshore Sabah, which will require deep water capable PSVs, and also the re-development of fields which are experiencing declining production.
Recent tender by PETRONAS calls for provision of about 10 Anchor Handling Tug (AHTS) of 60M with DP 1 capability for 5 years contract.
PETRONAS has stepped up offshore drilling with local and foreign partners. I understand that there are about 25 drill ships operating in Malaysian waters and only one is a Malaysian owned.
Currently there are about 65 offshore support vessels of various types and sizes chartered to Petronas Carigali’s for Hook Up and Commissioning, Development Division only.
Demand for offshore marine vessels will be highly sought-after to support the development activities and largely confined to platform supply vessels (PSVs), accommodation barges/workboats and anchor-handling and tug supply vessels of more than 5,000 brake horse power.
We understand that 10 to 12 PSVs will be needed to support domestic operations, notably in deep water.
The Malaysia OSV (Offshore Support Vessels) Owners Association, or its acronym "OSV Malaysia" in short was established on 16th June 2011 and has successfully held its maiden Annual General Meeting on 22nd September 2011.
Offshore support vessels (OSV) are ships and various types of marine vessels, designed and built to cater to the needs of the Oil and Gas upstream industry, at sea. The Association forms a crucial part of Malaysia's Oil and Gas industry, especially in the exploration and production sectors.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES : • To provide a collective platform to express common industry concerns for members’ interest and welfare • To facilitate in promoting research and development in the Malaysianization of technical support and services • Training and human resources development for OSV industry
The Association represents the ordinary members of Malaysian ship owners, who own and operate OSVs in providing services in the maritime logistic, accommodation and maintenance facilities.
It encourages other sectors, such as the financial institutions, maritime training institutions, shipyards, marine insurance and vessel classification society, which are engaged in or associated with the Oil and Gas industry, to become its associated members.
OSV Malaysia can be a catalyst for economic growth and interaction within the Oil & Gas industry in Malaysia.
It is especially important as it enables industry players to pull strength and resources together towards the development and expansion of the industry. Towards the end we should facilitate and encourage our players to compete out of our own shore.
Total Membership Strength as at 25 June 2012 = 23 Total Fleet’s Strength = 200 (Average age = 4.5 years old) Next 5 years Members Fleet Expansion Plan (2016) = About 80 vessels Total combined group revenue is worth more than RM15billion and a combined group assets worth more than RM 10billion.
About 12,000 employed marine crews serving on all our offshore vessels nationwide.
There are about 49 Malaysian registered companies (including Labuan registered) that own and operate Offshore Support Vessels.
There is a demand for more than 200 vessels in the next five years in Malaysia.
I understand that all our members fleet of 200 units are fully employed.
Minor retracement. My perdonal view on the chart is upleg is stil intact. It has not even fallen below 64 thus i m stil confident. My final tp is stil the same 86-96. Trade at own risk.
as we can observe for stock like chhb...brem...go take a look...afta few days of flying...eventually they went down...consolidate b4 it started to fly higher again...i believe this will happen on silkhld...hopefully wont let us wait long...my 2c again :D
No worries of silk, vol darn slim like paper n good sign during consolidation. No more seller n now we re waiting for big leg to push it up once they complete their accumulation.
u think will enter consolidate stage b4 moving to w3 or direct move into w3 later? i believe big player still inside waiting for right timing to push up the price?
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
