The floating production facility construction market continues to be a key driver in the offshore energy sector, with activity expected to stay strong from 2025-2027.

The industry may start seeing more gradual demand changes, as opposed to boom and bust.

Industry Insights from Energy Maritime Associates, Executive Director, <https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAAVz30BLdbakM-UtaytQlwTN5vDeOkx0Ew>[David Boggs](https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-boggs-ema/)

The floating production facility construction market remains one of the key bright spots in the offshore energy market. Industry sentiment remains extremely positive, although down from last year’s record level. Project delays in 2024 have tempered optimism, while also allowing additional capacity in the supply chain and lower cost inflation. Activity levels are expected to remain high from 2025-27, but new orders will continue to be challenged by project economics and geopolitical events.
