Group Quarterly Results

Ship Conversion & Offshore SectorThe ship conversion and offshore sector was the second largest revenue contributor at $1.1 billion, accounting for 27 per cent of the Group’s turnover. As a leading provider for the conversion of floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) systems and the turnkey engineering and construction of offshore platforms, the Group delivered three FPSO units, one offshore vessel and one offshore platform project in 2011.

Number of Deliveries 2011 2010

FPSO 3 3Offshore vessel 1 -Platform 1 1Rig conversion - 1Total 5 5

Rig Building SectorThe rig building sector accounted for the largest share of revenue at $2.2 billion, contributing to 56 per cent of turnover in 2011. A total of three jack-up rigs and four semi-submersible rigs were delivered on or ahead of schedule during the year. The Group set an industry record in December 2011 with the delivery of Singapore’s largest newbuild high-specification jack-up rig – West Elara, the Group’s first harsh-environment jack-up capable of North Sea operations. Transocean Honor, the first of a series of proprietary Pacific Class 400 design jack-up rigs, was also delivered in 2011.

A record of four ultra-deepwater semi-submersible rigs were delivered in the year, a testimony of the Group’s proven innovative fast-track capabilities in semi-submersible rig construction.

Group Quarterly Results

its January 2012 report, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasted world output to increase by 3.25 per cent in 2012. The growth is mainly driven by the expansion of emerging economies, particularly China and India, which have been growing at a significantly higher rate than advanced economies over the past decade. According to IMF, emerging economies are projected to grow 5.75 per cent in 2012. Based on these projections, global oil demand is widely expected to grow in the long term.

Oil prices remain strongDespite the economic and financial turmoil in Europe and the United States, crude oil prices have remained relatively strong. Oil prices ended on a record average high, with the Brent at US$111/bbl, up from the previous annual record of US$98.52/bbl.

Outlook and Underlying Market DriversThe fundamentals driving the oil and gas industry remain intact despite the macro-economic uncertainty that affected the global markets in 2011. World oil demand continues to grow, and supply remains tight with oil prices remaining above the US$100/bbl range, resulting in increased exploration and production spending by major and national oil companies.

Global oil demand continues to growThe world oil demand continues to rebound from the economic shock of 2008-2009. Global economic growth is driving the increase in energy consumption and despite the economic turmoil and financial strains in Europe and the United States, global output is continuing to rise. In

Brent crude is now trading at an average of US$113/bbl. As the oil companies’ appetite for additional rig capacity is driven mainly by oil prices, the fundamental outlook for the offshore oil and gas exploration and production sector looks highly positive in the near future.

The “Golden Triangle” – Brazil, the Gulf of Mexico and West Africa – will continue to spur the demand for ultra-deepwater rigs over the next years. In addition to these

regions, new areas are also emerging. The year 2011 saw several new oil and gas discoveries, including a few in new frontiers (see map).

This development is expected to continue, as the search for new plays drive oil companies to uncharted regions, often in remote

locations, such as Alaska or the Brents Sea.

Exploration and production budgets are growingReflecting market conditions and the need to find

new oil sources, oil majors have been increasing their capital

expenditure budgets for exploration and production activities. Deepwater

expenditures are expected to account for a substantial and increasing portion of

the total budgets and spending. While shale projects are attractive, the deepwater sector,

being a major source of new oil and gas supply, is expected to gain increasingly strong interest

from oil and gas companies.
