Oilfield services giant Baker Hughes has won a contract to supply up to 50 subsea tree systems and associated services from Petrobras to support offshore oil and gas production across multiple fields in Brazil. Under the award, secured through an open tender, Baker Hughes will manufacture Petrobras’ pre-salt standard subsea trees, as well as subsea distribution units, in-line tees and vertical connection systems. In addition, topside control cabinets will provide monitoring and control of subsea equipment from FPSOs. These modern subsea systems will enhance recovery in established fields, including Albacora, Jubarte, and Barracuda-Caratinga. They will also be deployed in more recent pre-salt developments, including the Mero and Buzios fields, to optimise production in new wells. “This agreement opens new opportunities to accelerate growth in Brazil’s offshore energy sector, and we look forward to helping Petrobras efficiently and responsibly develop the hydrocarbon resources that power Latin America,” said Amerino Gatti, EVP of oilfield services and equipment at Baker Hughes. Earlier this month, Baker Hughes signed a multi-year agreement with Petrobras to extend the deployment of the 2008-built Blue Marlin and the 2013-built Blue Orca, two stimulation vessels. The two will deliver advanced chemical treatments to stimulate wells, maximising production in both brownfield and greenfield developments across multiple basins. The vessels will also support well construction through gravel pack and frac pack operations. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsBrazil United States
