The employee was a technician in inspections and calibration, he had 96% of his body burned. On the same day of the accident, another 28-year-old employee also died.
The vessel had left Campo de Marlim, which is one of the largest oil extraction areas in the Campos Basin, with at least 13 platforms in operation. This same ship was heading to Porto do Açú, in São João da Barra. This vessel was undergoing maintenance at the time of the accident.

That's why it's important to take all safety courses, not to do things “the easy way” and to review all operating procedures before carrying out any offshore activity. We literally live on a ticking time bomb. What you do directly affects the life of the companion on board. So don't give in to pressure, if you can't do the job, don't do it! You have the right to refuse and your life comes first, don't forget that there are family members waiting and dependent on you on land.
