Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 24, 2007, we issued a press release announcing that T. Jay Collins, President and Chief Executive Officer, will deliver a presentation at the 2007 Deutsche Bank Energy & Utilities Conference being held in Miami Beach, FL on Wednesday, May 30, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Savings Time. We are furnishing that press release as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporate it by reference herein.

The presentation will be webcast live over the Internet. Interested parties may listen to the presentation and view the slides live over the Internet at http://www.conferences.db.com/aericas/energy07. An archived replay will be available for 30 days after the conference. The presentation slides will be available for viewing using the Investor Relations link at our website, www.oceaneering.com beginning Wednesday, May 30, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Savings Time.

Please note that certain information contained in the presentation, as well as certain written and oral statements made or incorporated by reference from time to time by us or our representatives in our reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, news releases, conferences, teleconferences, Web postings or otherwise, 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 include statements about or to the effect that:

 

   

our pricing will improve;

   

we will benefit from added capacity;

   

our earnings outlook for 2007, including operating income for ROVs, Subsea Products, Subsea Projects and MOPS;

   

future floating rig new builds;

   

ROV expansion opportunities and 2007 outlook for increased days on hire and higher average pricing;

   

the market outlook for deepwater and subsea completion activity;

   

forecasted Subsea tree orders;

   

forecasted umbilical and tree control hardware capital expenditures by the offshore oil and gas industry;

   

future Gulf of Mexico subsea tree installations;

   

favorable demand for deepwater inspection, maintenance and repair and hurricane damage work in our Subsea Projects segment;

   

our projected 2007 Cash Flow from Operations (as defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Appendix to the presentation);

   

our projected 2007 EBITDA (as defined and reconciled to GAAP measures in the Appendix to the presentation); and

   

worldwide umbilical market overview, including forecast for 2007 – 2009.

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 for oil and gas;

   

general economic and business conditions and industry trends;

   

the ability of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, to set and maintain production levels and pricing;

   

the level of production by non-OPEC countries;

   

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; and

   

overall economic conditions.

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. For additional information regarding these and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements, see our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 and our latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 


We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
