No upside for investment unless
Minimises Cost

Manage risk – balance with minimizing cost

Managing risk for future upside

Factors in the current market
• Vessel rates and service costs are under pressure even after oil price appears to have bottomed• Service pricing to lag oil price
firming?• How long – 2 years?
• Operators liabilities growing at 13% p.a. (CAGR)• Reached 10% market cap in 2014
• BSEE place 20mm USD cost for subsea well P&A
• Major operators spending ca 40mm USD for subsea P&A
• Ability to sell assets and liabilities curtailed
• Financial responsibility issues under review in GoM

Information availability
How much information is lost. Quality of information to hand
Legacy equipment
Standards of operations – established but;
Across operators?
Across regulators – separate issue
Build a back log of work
Allow for timing of operations

Operator Challenges
![Page 18: Decommissioning Great Opportunity, Wrong Time?ddwgom2015.weebly.com/uploads/6/5/8/1/65813501/8.30am_colin_j… · Decommissioning Great Opportunity –Wrong Time Market Overview and](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071012/5fca3f0c41385f68a16614f1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What has to be faced?
• Rig alternative approach
• Riser or riserless – function of well configuration and status• Through Tubing Operations
• Production zone isolation
• Tubing isolation and handling
• Control lines
• Annulus Verification, Isolation and
Placement

Subsea well decommissioningThe Full Package• Elimination of the rig
• If well classification is suitable
• If not what other hurdles?• Casing removal – section milling – alternatives
• Handling improvement
• Annulus barrier creation • Cement the only way?
• Placement, displacement and sealing
• Leave in place – tubing, casing – sealing
• Multi-string logging - verification

Staying in compliance
• Broad approach to what is acceptable however;• Different perceptions of risk to achieve it
• Default rig
• Riser based only
• Riserless is okay
• All wells are different• UK Categorisation functions well – risk based?
• DnV – Risk Based Approach
• Is the fog clearing on international agreement?

Operating Environment and Costs
• Offshore expansion and inefficiencies
• Squeeze is / was
• Lower oil price
• Stubbornly high costs
• Ageing infrastructure
• Large decommissioning bill
• Threat to profitable and unprofitable alike• Companies that use pipelines and terminals
shut down• Bill lands on the survivors
• Piece of infrastructure breaks or operator goes bust
• Everyone who uses it is in trouble

Challenge of Economics
• Liabilities are forever?
• Coverage in down market
• Optimising what we have• Low rates – vessels and services• Spending is curtailed – losing any
advantage?
• Operators Piece of mind• Low risk• Low cost, Fixed cost
• Service Sector• Visibility – utilization• Liability – minimum exposure• Flexibility - optimisation
• Decommissioning Brokerage• Regulators as referee
• Operators compete• At lease bid – is it over after that?
• Collaborate on decommissioning• Align timing
• Upfront preparation
• Align flexibility on timing• Vertical integration of operations
• Shift from end date focus• Staged decommissioning
• Advancing the cash layout
• Fill the hopper
• Service companies big grab• Allocation of resources and assets
