In a new edition of their report ‘Mobile Broadband Cards, Routers, Services, and Subscribers’ Infonetics Research predict mobile broadband cards to be an $8.4 billion market by 2013.

Report highlights:

The mobile broadband card market grew 10% sequentially in the first half of 2009, driven by increasing adoption of HSPA and demand for netbooks

Manufacturer revenue from mobile broadband cards is forecast to hit $8.4 billion worldwide by 2013

Worldwide, the number of mobile broadband subscribers is expected to near 1 billion by 2013 (including phone and PC based W-CDMA/HSPA, CDMA2000/EV-DO, and LTE subscribers)

Mobile subscriber growth is being fueled by people seeking basic voice service, particularly in BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China), all migrating to 3G, which in turn will drive mobile broadband subscriber adoption

CDMA operators have been quicker off the blocks with mobile broadband, rolling out EV-DO earlier than GSM operators upgraded their networks to W-CDMA/HSPA, resulting in significantly higher CDMA2000/EV-DO mobile broadband card adoption

Between 2009 and 2013, worldwide service provider revenue from mobile broadband services is forecast to more than double

Mobile TV: Business models and opportunities
In this Industry Report

Television is already a mass media and is also currently made available through the Internet Protocol (IP). Marrying the two most popular services in the world may sound like a great idea but there are still several issues which must be carefully addressed before mobile TV becomes a safe investment.

Who is going to pay for the network deployment? What will be the underlying business model? Are appropriate regulation policies necessary? How new regulation may affect the market? What are the opportunities for mobile operators, broadcasters and content owners?
There are currently no straight answers to those questions but several options exist. They must be deeply investigated in order to make appropriate decisions for mobile TV to become successful.
The purpose of this report is to offer an understanding of the fundamental aspects of the mobile TV market past present and future with regards to the technology choice and local context. This report also analyses the mobile TV market from the views of different players in the value chain.

Key findings:

*The mobile TV market will be worth over €4.4bn in 2011 in Asia, North America and Western Europe combined
*Subscription business models will dominate, generating more than 90 per cent of revenues in 2011
*The most impressive growth will be experienced in North America where the broadcast mobile TV market is set to grow by 350 per cent between 2008 and 2010.
*A key obstacle to overcome is the lack of spectrum and appropriate regulation
*Although free to air services drive customer growth in Asia, the business model lacks proven monetisation methods, therefore undermining its deployment in other markets.
*Mobile TV will generate more revenues than mobile music and mobile games combined
*In Europe, mobile TV will represent 27 per cent of total pay TV subscriptions.

In the report:

*Forecasts of mobile TV subscriptions, viewings and consumer revenues to 2011
*Background of technology standards and spectrum.
*Overview of the current state of the market.
*Analysis of the regulation impact on mobile broadcast TV deployments.
*Review and history of business models for unicast and broadcast mobile TV services.
*Description and comparison of value chain structures.
*Market sizes by technology and business models.
*Analysis of the impact of mobile TV on the TV and mobile content industries.
*Comparison of mobile TV ARPU with other pay TV platforms.
*Analysis of the major key players in the industry including mobile operators, broadcasters, technology enablers and service providers.
*Data profile for each of the leading markets in Asia, North America and Europe

Executive Summary

The Sector At A Glance

Key Insights On The Oil & Gas Sector Of Iraq

The latest Iraq Oil & Gas Report from It forecasts that the country will account for 6.38% of MEA regional oil demand by 2010, while providing 7.63% of supply. MEA regional oil demand rose to an estimated 10.86mn b/d last year and should average 11.08mn b/d in 2007, before reaching 11.91mn b/d by 2010. MEA gas consumption in 2006 was an estimated 373bcm, with demand of 533bcm targeted for 2010. Production last year of an estimated 510bcm should reach 774bcm by the end of the decade. While Iraq should have begun exporting gas to neighbouring Kuwait during the forecast period, it is not expected to make a significant contribution to either regional gas supply or demand over the short to medium term.

For 2007, the revised It forecasts are for the OPEC basket to average US$55 per barrel. Based on last year’s typical price differentials, this implies Brent at US$58.72, WTI averaging US$59.94/bbl, and Urals at US$55. Our central view is therefore that the OPEC basket price will slip from US$55/bbl this year to US$50 in 2008, before settling around US$45/bbl in 2009/2010. Should OPEC defend successfully our presumed ‘target’ price of US$55/bbl during the challenging months of 2007, then it is reasonable to assume medium-term prices may surprise on the upside.

Iraq real GDP growth is forecast by It at 10.2% for 2007, following an estimated 9.1% in 2006. We are assuming 14.7% growth in 2008, 11.4% in 2009 and 7.7% in 2010. We expect oil demand of an estimated 570,000b/d in 2006 to rise to 800,000b/d in 2011, depending on investment in infrastructure and the development of domestic production. International oil companies (IOCs) are in 2007 expected to join production sharing agreements with the state, which should help accelerate the growth in oil output. Based on the efforts of existing contractors and national oil industry bodies, we are forecasting average oil production of 2.15mn b/d this year. December 2006 production was 1.77mn b/d, with more than 1.4mn b/d of exports. Further field reactivation work and the initial IOC efforts point to output of an estimated 3.1mn b/d in 2011. The government has much more ambitious targets, aiming for 0.5mn b/d annual output expansion and a long-tem goal of 6.0mn b/d. However, there are major risks involving attacks on oil installations, Iraq’s OPEC entitlement and the success of new energy policy in stimulating IOC investment.

In the It Business Environment Ranking matrix, Iraq this quarter receives a slightly lower composite score of 34, which now ranks the country equal fifth out of 16 states included in the MEA region, alongside Angola. The overall business environment can be considered moderately attractive in a regional context, thanks largely to huge oil production upside potential and vast untapped oil and gas reserves. A great opportunity exists for IOCs once the political situation has stabilised and production sharing/licensing terms have been agreed. Political and economic risk remains very high, which offsets the positive factors.
