Seatrium H1 profit more than doubles to $373m

Revenue rose 4.7% to $5.6b as gross margin improved.

Seatrium Limited’s net profit surged 158% to $373m in the first half of the year, from $144m a year earlier.

Revenue rose 4.7% to $5.6b from $5.4b, whilst gross margin improved to 8.6% from 7.4%. EBITDA excluding divestment gains rose 20% to $479m.

The group attributed the margin improvement to a larger share of higher-margin projects, lower indirect overheads, productivity gains, and cost controls.

As at end-June, Seatrium’s net order book stood at $13.3b across 24 projects scheduled for delivery through 2033.

Lower-margin legacy projects outside the floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) segment accounted for about 1% of the order book following the completion of three projects. Over 95% comprised Series Build projects.

Major developments, including the P-80 and P-82 FPSOs for Petrobras and Shell’s Sparta floating production unit, remained on track for sailaway in the second half of the year.

The group said it expects its opportunity pipeline to exceed $32b over the next 24 months, comprising about $21b in oil and gas projects, $9b in offshore wind, and $2b in conversions.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
