Annual Strategy Guide - 2016 - World's Top 5 Civil Helicopter Manufacturers - Airbus Group, AgustaWestland, Bell, Russian Helicopters, Sikorsky - Strategic Focus & Priorities, Key Strategies & Plans, SWOT Analysis, Key Trends, Market Outlook
The Global Civil Helicopter fleet projected to increase by 50% over Long-term. Near term pressures emanating from Weak Energy Market prevail.
The global civil helicopter market has grown almost three fold in size over the past decade driven by an expansion of the degree as well as scope of utilization of civil helicopters across a range of user segments led by the offshore oil & gas exploration sector, law enforcement & other parapublic based applications. Further, the imminent, radical generational leap in technology; with the development & commercialization of tiltrotorcrafts & compound helicopters for the civil segment by the industry; is likely to transform the market landscape significantly over medium term with the role played traditionally by civil helicopters likely to be redefined with a significant expansion of their operational spectrum, capabilities & performance threshold. The under-development AW609 program, especially, has tremendous potential for the offshore oil & gas transportation, search & rescue and executive transport applications.
The near-term outlook for civil helicopters is, however, difficult with the sector impacted significantly by the ongoing downturn & consolidation in the offshore oil & gas exploration sector, which accounts for a major 40% share of the annual demand for new civil helicopters globally followed by law enforcement & EMS segments respectively. The global oil price dynamics are complex with crude oil prices likely to stay at current levels through 2016 driven by an oil oversupply scenario with OPEC likely to maintain output levels over near term to protect its market share while Iran also joins existing oil suppliers post lifting of sanctions with the recent introduction of Integrated Petroleum Contracts & plans massive investments towards oil & gas projects over the next 5 years to develop its oil & gas sector, which could provide some traction & uptick to the global construction & energy industries.
The sustained slump in crude oil prices is likely to continue to have an impact on demand and activity across the global in-service civil helicopter fleet with limited activity across key exploration sites. Additionally, continued economic contraction in Brazil for the consecutive three quarters in 2015 & slowdown in China are adding further to the woes. However, other market segments, including, law enforcement, EMS, firefighting, tourism & training are witnessing an increase in utilization rate & replacement cycles which should keep the overall demand for civil helicopters stable over near term along-with continued growth in aftermarket sales, MRO & other services amid a favorable & sustained low oil price environment. Also, the medium to long term view of the Global Civil Helicopter market is promising, albeit near term pressures, with presence of strong fundamentals and long term, sustainable growth drivers & enablers with the Global in-service Civil Helicopter Fleet projected to increase by 50% by 2034.
