Rig activity, often viewed as a leading metric for offshore support vessel demand, improved slightly on a global basis during the quarter. However, in the core regions (North Sea, South America and Asia-Pacific) the rig activity decreased by 1.3%. The rig backlog declined each month of Q3 due to limited fixing volumes. Semi sub rig utilization bottomed out at the end of Q3 and is projected to increase over the coming 18 months.
