This week’s DW Monday proved popular and was featured on a number of websites:

“Backlogs have been historically high in recent years – following record levels of subsea tree orders posted in 2013-2014. The process of working through these backlogs has thus-far cushioned the market against the decline in order activity seen in 2015.”

With production in decline, the U.K. oil and gas industry has been severely impacted by a longer than anticipated suppression in oil price…Ultimately, a change in taxation regime is not going to dramatically alter the fate of production operations within the North Sea.”
