At 6.7% CAGR, the Europe FPSO market is projected to be worth US$ 3,013.50 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights  

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the Europe FPSO market was valued at US$ 1,914.00 million in 2021 and is expected to reach US$ 3,013.50 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 5.9% from 2021 to 2028. Significant increase oil and gas production in deep and ultra-deepwater and increasing number of offshore exploration and production activities are the critical factors attributed to the market expansion.    

The industrialization of deep sea is expanding across the world. Deepwater areas are one of the most important fields for increasing oil and gas reserves and production. Hence, they are emerging as a hotspot for oil and gas exploration due to the depletion of easily accessible oil and gas resources and technological improvements. The FPSO market is stimulated by an expansion in offshore operations in deepwaters and ultra-deep seas due to increased investments in this area. Since the last decade, the share of crude oil output from deepwater or ultra-deepwater developments has been growing in these countries. 

The oil and gas exploration companies, such as Equinor ASA, increasingly focus on deepwater and ultra-deepwater oil and gas extraction. Thus, increasing oil and gas production in deepwater and ultra-deepwater drives the demand for the integration of FPSOs into the ships used to explore oil and gas, which fuels the growth of the EPSO market.

On the contrary, various challenges faced in FPSO implementation hurdles the growth of Europe FPSO market.
