Offshore & subsea - 11 May 2020

Petrobras has discovered oil in the southeast area of the Búzios field and in the pre-salt of the Albacora field.

The contracts cover the engineering, procurement and construction of seven modules for the gas treatment, gas compression, utilities and flare systems for the FPSO Anna Nery.

The world’s largest crane vessel, Heerema Marine Contractors’ Sleipnir, safely transported the topside module onto the Neptune-operated Gjøa platform in a three-hour operation.

The increase in demand has been triggered by the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The solution will aim to minimise safety risks, enhance asset integrity and create potential savings of AUS$$2.8 billion per year for the Australian offshore energy industry.

The letter from Ghana's Energy Minister instructs the companies to begin talks to combine the Sankofa and Afina offshore fields.

Solstad Offshore's CSV, Far Saga, has been awarded a contract with Petrobras for a period of 3 years firm.
