据RZNews.com网站9月22日休斯敦报道，全球海上投资水平在行业低迷期间每年都在下降以后在2019年将出现上升。
挪威雷斯塔能源公司（RE）日前发表的分析报告显示，最近全球海上石油和天然气最终投资决定（FIDs）数目的激增为明年全球海上投资的大幅增加奠定了基础。明年将是页岩投资首次未能超过海上投资。
去年批准的海上项目数量同比增加了50%，而今年将批准近100个海上项目。
雷斯塔能源公司油田服务研究部门主管澳顿· 马丁森在9月18日举行公司年度峰会上表示，海上油气工业已承诺在未来几年里投资1000亿美元。
马丁森说：“我们的海上活动指数显示，到2022年，海上活动的年增长率将达到6%左右，从而恢复到2014年看到的高活动水平。加上每年5%的服务价格上涨，预计到2022年，海上油田服务采购将以每年11%的速度增长。”

Offshore Investments to Outpace Shale in 2019
Offshore investments levels are set to rise in 2019 after decreasing each year during the industry downturn.
Recent analysis by Rystad Energy shows that a recent surge in offshore oil and gas FIDs has set the stage for a significant increase in offshore investments next year. This will be the first time shale investments will not overtake offshore.
The number of offshore projects sanctioned in 2017 rose 50 percent year-on-year and close to 100 offshore projects will be sanctioned this year.
The industry is committed to spending $100 billion over the next few years, Audun Martinsen, Rystad’s head of oilfield service research, said during Rystad Energy’s Annual Summit Sept. 18.
“Our offshore activity index is pointing to annual growth rates of about 6 percent towards 2022, thereby returning to the high activity levels seen in 2014,” said Martinsen. “Coupled with annual service price inflation of 5 percent, offshore oilfield service purchases are projected to grow by 11 percent per year towards 2022.”
