Whitepaper: Bridging the looming production gap

Offshore production is declining quickly, creating a growing gap between today’s stable supply and future demand. With deepwater projects taking years to develop, current investment is essential just to maintain output into the next decade.

Beyond 2027, long‑term visibility drops. Sustained capital, new frontier development, and faster adoption of technologies like subsea processing and electrification will be critical to preventing a more constrained global energy system.
