Oil and gas subsea production systems

The need for oil and gas will continue to grow over the next decades, mainly driven by an increasing standard of living in Asia. At the same time crude oil production from existing fields will drop over two-thirds by 2035, and must be replaced by new findings.

These facts indicate that there will be a strong need for products for the oil and gas industry over a long period of time to come. Trends are that more exotic materials are being used in the components, such as inconel, super-duplex etc and this trend will most likely increase.

The oil and gas components are also getting larger and the demands are getting higher, increased surface finish is one example.
