The contract scope includes engineering, fabrication, installation and pre-commissioning of 80 km of rigid risers and flowlines for the steel lazy wave production system, 60 km of flexible service lines, 50 km of umbilicals and associated infrastructure, as well as installation of FPSO mooring lines and hook-up.

Nexans will design, manufacture and supply 44 km of steel tube umbilicals and accessories for the Bacalhau ultra-deepwater oilfield development project.

The survey will cover approximately 17 000 line km and work as an extension of the existing TGS Pelotas 2D.

The survey is located in the western portion of the Santos Basin and works as a northwest extension of the existing TGS Santos 3D, covering approximately 5000 km2.

Scheduled for completion in late 2024, the P-78 FPSO will be customised for deployment in Brazil’s prolific Buzios field.

CGG has been awarded a contract by Equinor for the seismic imaging of its Bacalhau 3D ocean bottom node survey.

The platform will be the ninth unit to operate in the field, in the Santos Basin pre-salt.

Baker Hughes will supply Petrobras with up to five subsea production and injection manifold systems for the project.

The reimaged seismic data set, covering over 9300 km2, will be accessible to oil and gas companies wishing to evaluate acreage and assess the potential of the Agata block in the Santos Basin.

The total contract value is contingent on the final investment decision for the Bacalhau field, offshore Brazil.
