Auson, i've been following up with Sea Lion since 2018 and spoken with Infield Systems, the upstream supply chain guys in Wood Mckensie, and an off shore engineer in a German Oilfield service company (dont remember the name TBH) otherwise the Major i usually visit are mostly not taking on new Deep Water projects and focusing on Vertically integrating Shale upstream within their own mid stream and down stream operations to optimize efficiency.
Im not aware of the FPSOs and details you just mentioned but the guys i speak to keep mentioning the lack of financing and interest because in this environment viable at 60 is very unattractive.
So in conclusion, these projects have not been scrapped just delayed indefinitely waiting favorable market conditions... this is why timeline keep being delayed... no one is in a hurry especially with demand uncertainty on the horizon.
