Advisory

  • Our consultants work closely with the management of some of the largest service companies across all industry segments, in support of strategy development, business planning and acquisition screening, among other assignments. As companies have moved to maximize the value creation from their current asset base, we have provided advice on reinvestment in assets (MPD, mooring), asset retirements and reactivation strategies.  
  • We are fundamentally data-driven and have, over time, built an institutional knowledge of the rig industries and cultivated comprehensive databases that enable us to quickly conduct detailed assessments of new market scenarios and parameters. Combining our upstream database with rig, AIS and satellite data, we are able to provide detailed real-time assessments on market activity, and by tracking global activity we can quickly identify new hotspots. 
  • Our industry network enables us to collect important data points, but also to understand key qualitative aspects such as operator preferences, asset performance and quality of organizations. In soft market conditions, these factors are key to understanding the outlook for companies and the market segments. 
  • Providing key inputs to decision-makers, our detailed day rate and utilization forecasts enable investors and market participants to get a third-party assessment of their business plans.
