According to Soichi Ide, Digital Director and Vice President of Operations for Modec Group in Latin America and Ghana, the granting of significant assets to oil giants in recent years has classified Brazil as the best location in the world for the company to grow.

Many job openings are coming! In projections by the provider and operator of platforms Modec, Petrobras and other multinational oil companies are expected to demand 20 to 30 platforms in the next five years.

“We are very focused on Brazil,” the executive stated enthusiastically in his office in Rio de Janeiro.

“I know other markets in the North Sea, Africa, Asia… There are no other places like Brazil, where we can truly continue producing new projects on this basis, four or five projects every year. This is not happening in any market in the world, only in Brazil,” concludes Soichi.

The Japanese company estimates to open 800 job openings in Brazil in 2020 as part of its growth plan, and the new hires will increase its local workforce by 35% from 2,300 employees. About 90% of the company’s workforce in the country is Brazilian.

In response to the increasing operational demand for its vessels in the Campos Basin and the projected business growth for the coming years, Modec inaugurated its new operations base last year in Macaé (RJ).

Present in Brazil since 2003, the provider and operator of platforms is already responsible for 35% of Brazilian pre-salt production, with 11 operational oil platforms in the country and four more under construction.

In light of ongoing business and growth prospects, Ide stated that Modec decided to invest in technology to enhance results and contribute to regional development.

The platform included in a select list from the World Economic Forum, known as the “Global Lighthouse Network,” was the FPSO Cidade de Campos dos Goytacazes, which produces in the Tartaruga Verde field, operated by Petrobras.

This is the first time an industrial facility located in Latin America has been included in the “lighthouse network” – the recognition is also unprecedented among offshore units and includes for the first time a unit operated by a Japanese company.

Ide also highlighted that the technological development recognized by the World Economic Forum was entirely carried out by the company in Brazil.
