Future Outlook

 

During 2009 financial uncertainties led major Indian oil field operators to drastically reduce their capex for exploration and development and were very cautious in spending on non production related activities in 2010, The award of all the major anticipated projects were delayed or cancelled during 2009. However, FSlNPVT was reasonably busy during the Indian field season completing the backlog from the previous season.

 

With the installation of a stable government In national as well as in state level, there is on immediate political uncertainty. With the oil prim hovering around US$ 70, there are fair chances that oil field operators will go ahead with their exploration and development plan for 2010. In lieu of this the long term growth prospects of marine survey business in India and abroad w m s to be very favorable. The directors are confident 01 converting The company's invaluable endowments contemporary equipments, competent personnel, a satisfied customer barn and respected management team into sustained growth and profitability.
