Subsea Theme Analysis Market Report Overview
In the oil and gas industry, subsea deals with all the processes and technologies that are deployed below the sea surface. It primarily concerns the installation of equipment on the seabed to produce hydrocarbons. Furthermore, subsea technology has proven to be profitable in waters at a variety of depths. The core idea of subsea is to move much of the equipment and processes down to the seabed. Additionally, technological advances have played a great role in boosting subsea, while rising demand for oil and growth in the mature offshore fields forced companies to increase production activities on the seabed.
Subsea equipment manufacturers have been working to reduce the cost of machinery installed on the seabed for deep water production. Their efforts in streamlining material procurement, optimizing subsea architecture, and simplifying equipment installation have brought about an overall reduction in the complexity of subsea systems. Besides, engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractors have managed to lower the project execution cycle time to further improve the viability of subsea developments. Decarbonizing offshore projects is extremely challenging due to limited access to clean energy sources. Subsea equipment typically runs on hydraulic power supplied via diesel generators installed on topside platforms.
The Subsea Technologies thematic intelligence report provides an overview of subsea as a theme within the offshore oil and gas industry, encompassing shallow water, deep water, and ultra-deep water terrains.

Subsea Technologies in Oil and Gas – Industry Analysis
Global offshore production was valued at 46.1 MMboed in 2021. From 2017 to 2021, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Norway, Brazil, and the US led in terms of offshore production. During this period, shallow water explorations dominated overall offshore activities. The growth in deep water production can be mainly ascribed to the growing demand for oil and gas globally, as the countries are increasingly trying to reduce their reliance on Russian crude. This would encourage oil and gas companies to venture into less explored deep-water regions.

Subsea Technologies in Oil and Gas - Value Chain Analysis
The oil and gas value chain represents a sequence of activities from exploration to the sale of hydrocarbons, all the way to end-users. The process includes upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors. Meanwhile, subsea involves the exploration, drilling, and development of oil and gas fields on the sea bed to produce and store hydrocarbons. Subsea systems are primarily designed for the upstream segment of the oil and gas value chain. These are installed on the ocean floor to support the extraction of hydrocarbons at an optimum flow. This has proven to be beneficial as it reduces capex and operational expenditure (opex) associated with offshore production and eliminates the need for fixed platforms.
GlobalData’s Subsea Technologies value chain in oil and gas industry is split into six segments: equipment, infrastructure, installation, inspection, intervention, and decommissioning.
