Offshore Equipment Market

Looking Up

More good news regarding the longevity of the offshore oil boom was heard recently when Italian drilling equipment company Saipem

SpA reported that it expected the offshore plant equipment market to grow by 10 to 15 percent in 1998.

According to the company's chair- man, Fabrizio d'Adda, the deep sea market has remained firm, and is the cause of Saipem's optimism.

Mr. d'Adda also noted that depressed oil prices will not affect the market so much in 1998.

However, if oil prices remain at cur- rent levels, plans beyond year-end could be altered.
