Rising Emphasis on Deepwater and Ultra-deepwater Exploration: A shift toward deepwater and ultra-deepwater exploration. With the decrease in traditional reserves, attention has been turning to more remote and difficult offshore areas. The need for a new generation of advanced drilling rigs qualified to operate in ever deeper waters naturally follows from this trend. One of the main drivers is technological innovation, and advances in drilling technologies, automation and digitalization continue to increase operational efficiency and enhance safety.

North America holds a dominant position in the offshore drilling market, primarily driven by the increasing exploration of natural gas, particularly shale gas. The region also benefits from a significant number of technological advancements and the presence of large oil reserves. On the other hand, the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest growth rate in the offshore drilling market. This growth can be attributed to the escalating exploration and production activities in the region, coupled with the rising demand for oil and gas.
