Firstly, Foresea reaffirmed in 2025 its commitment to diversity in the offshore drilling industry, a sector historically dominated by men.

Moreover, the female participation in leadership positions at the company increased from 31% to 34% in 2025, strengthening diversity as a strategic pillar.

Thus, the progress was registered in the same year that the company was recognized as the best offshore drilling operator in Brazil.

Consequently, the evolution demonstrates that gender equity has been incorporated as part of Foresea’s organizational culture.

Female Diversity Grows in Foresea Leadership

Additionally, during 2025, the company expanded initiatives aimed at increasing female participation in the offshore sector.

In this context, Foresea participated as a partner in the Women in the Field program, an initiative promoted by Petrobras in 2025.

The project was created to train female platform assistants, a role considered an essential entry point for careers in drilling rigs.

Thus, the program seeks to encourage female presence in offshore operations, broadening professional opportunities in the energy sector.

Therefore, Foresea’s participation reinforces the corporate commitment to diversity, inclusion, and professional development.

Commitment to Gender Equity in the Offshore Sector

Moreover, according to Hygo Souza, Vice President of People and Management at Foresea, diversity is treated as a corporate strategy.

According to the executive, the company is a signatory of the Elas Lideram 2030 Movement, an initiative of the United Nations Global Compact (UN).

Thus, the company works to enhance gender equity in different positions, including leadership roles.

According to Hygo Souza:

Diversity strengthens innovation in offshore operations
Inclusion contributes to operational safety
The plurality of professionals drives high performance

Thus, the company understands that diversity also represents a competitive advantage in an increasingly demanding energy market.

Female Presence Transforms the Offshore Environment

Additionally, Clarisse Rodrigues highlighted the impact of female presence in the offshore drilling sector.

Currently, Clarisse acts as the manager of the drillship Norbe IX.

Moreover, she became the first woman to hold the position of Rig Manager in the offshore drilling industry in Brazil.

According to Clarisse Rodrigues:

“The presence of women in the offshore environment is important and motivating for other women to feel valued in this space.”

Furthermore, the executive emphasized that professional competence has no gender.

Consequently, diversity directly contributes to operational excellence in offshore activities.

In addition to her operational role, Clarisse also leads the Gender Affinity Group of Foresea’s Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Program.

Operational Structure and Foresea Operations

Currently, Foresea is providing specialized solutions in offshore drilling.

To this end, the company operates its own fleet consisting of five rigs:

ODN I
ODN II
Norbe VI
Norbe VIII
Norbe IX

All these units, therefore, have active contracts in the offshore drilling market.

Additionally, the company has international APIQ2 certification, which recognizes global standards of quality and operational efficiency.

Consequently, the company also records one of the highest operational uptime rates in the offshore drilling market.

Operational Values and Commitment to ESG

Finally, Foresea highlights as core values operational safety, partnership with clients, and trust in operations.

Additionally, the company claims to follow ESG principles, which involve environmental, social, and corporate governance practices.

Thus, the company states it adopts strict environmental and operational standards in its offshore activities.

In this way, the strategy seeks to balance high operational performance, environmental responsibility, and appreciation of energy sector professionals.

Given this continuous advancement in diversity, will the female presence in offshore drilling continue to grow in the coming years?
