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.

| Future floating rig demand; |
| Future new build subsea support vessels and the likely requirement of at least one work class ROV on each; |
| Expectation that our ROV fleet utilization rates during the last half of 2008 will be in the mid to high 80% range, and the expectation that we will add vehicles and raise prices; |
| Expected 2008 ROV results to improve by increasing days on hire, by adding approximately 30 new systems, achieving higher average revenue per day on hire, and realizing a slight improvement in operating income margin; |
| Expansion of our ROV fleet for both drill support and construction service; |
|
Expected 5th consecutive record year of ROV operating income, range of increased operating income for 2008 compared to 2007, and our midpoint estimate of ROV operating income; |

| The anticipated fourth quarter 2008 availability date of the Olympic Intervention IV; |
| Expected 2008 Subsea Projects results to decline, and the range of decline, due to hurricane work being substantially complete, decreasing demand for diving and shallow water vessel services and the regulatory inspections of four of Oceaneerings six owned vessels; |
