On December 8, 2009, T. Jay Collins, our President and Chief Executive Officer, will make a presentation to investors and industry analysts at the Capital One Southcoast 2009 Energy Conference in New Orleans, LA. Interested parties may view the slides for the presentation by using the Investor Relations link at Oceaneerings website, www.oceaneering.com, beginning on December 4, 2009 after 3:00 p.m., Central Daylight Time.
Please note that certain information contained in the presentation are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to the Safe Harbor provisions of those statutes. Forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as estimate, project, predict, believe, expect, anticipate, plan, forecast, budget, goal or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Among other items, the forward-looking statements in the presentation include statements about:
| Our expectation that our 2009 net income will be the second-highest in our history; |
| The secular growth and lower vulnerability level of deepwater markets to periods of cyclically low oil prices; |
| Our projection that 2009 earnings per share will be $3.32 to $3.38; |
| Our projection that 2010 earnings per share will be $3.25 to $3.55; |
| Our segment operating income guidance for 2010 compared to 2009, with projections that ROVs and Subsea Products will be up, Inspection will be flat, and Subsea Projects and MOPS will be down; |
| Our expectation that our ROV, Subsea Products and Subsea Projects segments will combine to provide in excess of 85% of our operating income in each of 2009 and 2010; |
| Our 2009 and 2010 projected cash flows, defined as net income plus depreciation and amortization, of over $300 million; |
| Our estimated capital expenditures of $200 million for 2009; |
| Our belief that we will have ample resources to invest in growth; |
| Anticipated deepwater discoveries to be evaluated and developed; |
| Floating rigs expected to be placed in service in the fourth quarter of 2009 and during the full year 2010; |
| Future floating rig demand, 2009 2012, and our belief that floating rig demand will drive future demand growth in ROV services and subsea hardware; |
| Expectation that our 2010 ROV revenue per day-on-hire, utilization and operating income margin percentage to be approximately equal to those of 2009; |
| Expected 2009 and 2010 ROV increases in days on hire, by adding 28 to 30 new systems in 2009 and 12 to 18 new systems in 2010; |
| Our plan to use our ROV manufacturing capacity to upgrade existing systems to improve their marketability; |
| Expectation that we will continue to expand our ROV fleet for both drill support and construction service, and add more ROVs on 3rd party vessels; |
| Our expectation that 2009 ROV operating income will exceed that of 2008, and 2010 ROV operating income will exceed that of 2009 based on an increase in days-on-hire; |
| Subsea completions expected to almost triple in this decade over the 1990s, and increase by over 100% in the decade commencing 2010; |
| Subsea tree orders forecast to be up approximately 40% in the period 2009 2013 compared to the period 2004 2008; |
| Expectation that 2010 Subsea Products revenue will be higher than in 2009, on the strength of increased umbilical plant throughput; |
| Expectation that 2009 Subsea Products operating income will be down compared to 2008, due to demand declines for our specialty subsea products and lower umbilical plant throughput; |
| Expectation that 2010 Subsea Products operating income will be higher than that of 2009, due to manufacturing process improvements and cost reductions implemented in 2009 and increased umbilical plant throughput; |
| Expectation that our Subsea Projects business related to hurricane repair work will be less in the fourth quarter of 2009 than the corresponding period of 2008; |
| Projected cumulative subsea completions in the Gulf of Mexico through 2009 and 2014; |
| Our intention to return our vessel The Performer to the Gulf of Mexico if pursuit of other international work is unsuccessful; |
| Our expectation that 2009 Subsea Projects operating income will be lower than 2008, due to a continuation of declining demand for shallow-water services and competitive rate pressure in the deepwater vessel market due to an increase in vessel availability; |
| Our expectation that 2010 Subsea Projects operating income will be lower than 2009, due to: the completion of the current contract for The Performer in January 2010; a softer market for our deepwater vessels in the Gulf of Mexico; continued decline in hurricane-related diving work; and higher vessel drydock expenses; |
| Our projected 2009 and 2010 net income plus depreciation and amortization in the Supplemental Financial Information, defined as cash flow in the presentation; |
| Our projected 2009 and 2010 EBITDA (as defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Supplemental Financial Information to the presentation); and |
| Subsea production control umbilicals orders forecast to be up approximately 20% in the period 2009 2013 compared to the period 2004 2008 in the Supplemental Financial Information. |
These forward-looking statements are based on our current information and expectations that involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Among the factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements are:
| worldwide demand and prices for oil and gas; |
| general economic and business conditions and industry trends; |

| the level of production by non-OPEC countries; |
| the ability of oil and gas companies to generate funds for capital expenditures; |
| domestic and foreign tax policy; |
| laws and governmental regulations that restrict exploration and development of oil and gas in various offshore jurisdictions; |
| rapid technological changes; |
| the political environment of oil-producing regions; |
| the price and availability of alternative fuels; |
| changes in competitive factors; |
| changes in project designs or schedules; |
| contract cancellations, change orders and other modifications; and |
| difficulties executing on projects. |
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual outcomes could vary materially from those indicated.
