Oil Companies Seek Support Vessels to Resume Offshore Oil Exploration Projects, Previously Halted Due to the Coronavirus Crisis

Equinor, Petrobras, and Shell are holding tenders for the chartering of offshore support vessels in Brazil. With the easing of some oil activities, previously limited due to the coronavirus pandemic, the so-called “oil majors” are racing against time to restart exploratory projects.

The Norwegian Equinor is looking for an Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessel (AHTS) for two campaigns likely starting on September 18 and December 25, with durations of 27 days and 45 days firm, respectively.

In addition to the Peregrino field in the Campos Basin, Equinor operates several exploratory blocks off the southeast coast of Brazil, such as BM-S-8 and North of Carcará, where the Bacalhau field is expected to produce its first oil by the mid-2020s.
