Creative and flexible funding for offshore contractors

Creative and flexible funding for offshore contractors
Since September 2012 the head office of ING Group and ING Bank is located in the ‘Amsterdamse Poort’-building in Amsterdam.

The global energy sector operates in a highly dynamic and competitive business environment. The total offshore capital expenditures of oil and gas companies are expected to exceed USD 270bn year-on-year by 2018,  Cornelie Goedhuis, Global Head – Natural Resources, ING Bank, says.


 

“So while the size and complexity of offshore projects are growing, raising the required financing  is becoming more crucial than ever before. Offshore contractors demand creative solutions and flexible funding to secure swift delivery and seamless execution for their off-takers. We have seen an increased liquidity in the markets and there are several funding sources for the clients to select from. At the same time, the current volatility and increasing regulations mean you  need to be smart when undertaking major investments that require financing,”  Ms. Goedhuis, adds.

ING has financed the Offshore Services market for over 20 years. This is once more recently confirmed by its number 1 position as Global Bookrunner for syndicated loans in this sector for 2013.
