Shipbuilder ABG Shipyard expects fresh orders worth Rs 2,000-3,000 crore by December, a bulk of it coming from the booming offshore and defence sectors ABG Shipyard's current order book stands at around Rs 14,500 crore of which Rs 7,600 crore are yet to be executed. Revenue in FY11 is expected to rise 30% on year due to the increased order inflow. ABG Shipyard had clocked in consolidated sales of Rs 1,812 crore in FY10.
Demand for rigs in particular was seeing a lot of buoyancy as crude prices were on the rise. ABG has a rig building yard in Dahej in Gujarat. The rig market is completely buoyant now. Rig day rates are close to $160,000.Helped by a surge in crude prices, oil companies are increasing their thrust on exploration and production, which has resulted in more offshore orders for firms like ABG.Last November, ABG had bagged an export order worth Rs 2,000 crore to build two jack-up rigs.
