Key Trends and Analysis of the SURF Market: 

• Among countries, Malaysia accounted for a significant market share in 2020. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, in 2017, Malaysia was the second-largest producer of petroleum and other liquids in Southeast Asia, following Indonesia and nearly all of Malaysia's oil is obtained from offshore fields. Furthermore, according to the World Energy Council, most of the oil extracted from offshore fields are from the following basins: Malay, Sarawak, and Sabah; and oil production had a general downward trend due to the maturation of oil fields. However, deepwater exploration and enhanced oil recovery are utilized to some extent to sustain the production levels.

Key Takeaways of the Market: 

• Among application, the shallow water sub-segment accounted for 62.9% of the revenue share in 2020. Increasing offshore activities have resulted in the rising demand for shallow water in the Asia Pacific region, thereby driving the market growth. For instance, in 2018, McDermott International, Inc., a global provider of engineering and construction solutions, announced that it had successfully completed the contract of phase II of the Greater Western Flank Phase 2 SURF project offshore Australia. In January 2016, the contract was awarded by Woodside Energy Ltd., a pioneer of the LNG industry in Australia.

Asia Pacific SURF Market - Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

• The demand for oil in APAC witnessed a huge decline in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It is expected that the demand for oil in APAC will surge by 2022-end. However, the expectations and prospects depend on the new variant of the COVID-19, named Omicron virus, and also lockdowns and restrictions. In recent years, the demand for subsea control systems and related wellhead control equipment has been growing. However, increasing oil and gas exploration activities and the sales of subsea control systems in APAC have been affected to a great scale due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
