This Petrobras FPSO Had Its Hull Built in China and Will Have the Installation of Modules and Integration Done in Jurong (ES).

According to Petrobras’ schedule, the oil platform of the FPSO type, the P-71, arrived yesterday (15) in Brazilian waters and is already being prepared for the start of integration and module assembly works.

The unit will be destined for the Sururu Field, in the Santos Basin, in Rio de Janeiro. The initial construction of the P-71 was completed on December 3 in China and approved by Petrobras. Since then, the platform has started its journey back to Brazil, with an estimated travel time of about 3 months, being towed by ocean-going tugboats.

The Jurong Shipyard will provide services to Petrobras for the construction and assembly of the P-71 modules, which represent the set of equipment and valves responsible for the operation of the FPSO. It is estimated that activities at the shipyard will last approximately 1.5 years, leading to job vacancies being generated during this period. About 2 thousand direct and 4 indirect.
