Petrobras’ Projects in the Oil and Natural Gas Sector in the National Territory Will Continue to Rely on the Support Services of DOF Subsea’s Vessels, Which Signed New Contracts with the State-Owned Company.
The maritime navigation and logistics company DOF Subsea has signed new charter contracts for its vessels to provide support services in the oil and natural gas sector. The contracts were closed with the state-owned company Petrobras, which will use the ships of the navigation company over the next few months for various services in its fuel exploration and search projects in the country.
Petrobras Signs New Charter Contracts for DOF Subsea’s Vessels to Ensure Support Services in Its Exploration Projects in the Oil and Natural Gas Sector
The week started highly productively for the navigation company DOF Subsea, as it has just signed three new contracts for vessel charters to provide support services to the oil and gas sector. Petrobras continued its partnership with the international company and closed a deal for the chartering of the vessels Skandi Chieftain, Skandi Olympia, and Skandi Commander, including remotely operated vehicles, aiming to enhance the quality of services in its projects.
Among the three vessels contracted by the Brazilian state-owned company, the Skandi Chieftain and Skandi Olympia from DOF Subsea will only have their contracts extended until the end of the year 2022, thus ensuring the continuity of support services provided to Petrobras’ projects.
