Report will be factual, with no WSCA recommendations: • Financial performance of WSCA companies in the UKCS has suffered • Capital investment has dropped • Resource flight is proven • 2. Published mid September, a full report with many other interesting comments. • 3. WSCA will develop recommendations to coincide with release of report. • The UKCS followed the world during the downturn. Will it recover as before? • Resources can return but at this time the UKCS appears unattractive. • With the expected increased work program through the end of 2001, can the • well services sector meet expected demand?
