Report summary
High capital and operating costs are the single biggest issue for companies in the UK and Norwegian sectors of the North Sea. Developing and running fields while making a profit has become ever more challenging, even during the 'good times' of oil prices around US$100/bbl. Radical changes are required to correct the cost base. So, what can we expect to change? And why? We detail our expectations for cost deflation across the UK and Norway.
