As of to date, the cumulative vessel sales orders secured in FY2013 alone amounted to approximately RM1.35 billion, which is approximately two times of the Group’s total vessel sales orders secured in FY2012 which amounted
RM698 million. This is a strong indicator for the Group’s rebound momentum, which is benefiting from the currently booming oil and gas sector.
Our order inflow looks favourable. Including these new contract wins, Coastal Group’s vessel sales orders as at to date stands at approximately RM1.28 billion. With current highly buoyant offshore market, we believe the Group would be able to capitalise more opportunities moving forward. Anchored on the buoyant oil and gas upstream sector globally with increasing offshore exploration and production activities, we are upbeat with the prospect of OSV market over the medium to long term, especially for more sophisticated and deepwater-capable OSV."
