The Supplier PJ Valves From the United Kingdom Won Contracts to Supply Valve Packages for Two Offshore FPSO Projects with Petrobras

The UK PJV obtained contracts from two distinct operators (one of them being Petrobras) due to its customer service and high design standards in FPSO, manufacturing, and distribution capabilities. Within the bidding process, PJV worked with each client on cost reductions and beneficial engineering improvements.

The Marlim 2 FPSO project will have the capacity to process up to 70,000 bbl of oil and 4 million m3/d of natural gas. PJV will supply a variety of butterfly, ball, globe, and check valves made from carbon stainless steel, super duplex, and nickel aluminum bronze materials.

The valves vary in sizes, with the maximum being 20 inches in diameter and the maximum pressure class being 2500, to withstand the processing requirements of the topside vessel at Petrobras’s works.

About the Other Two Contracts Involving Petrobras

PJV has won more work for the Mero 2 FPSO, which will produce 180,000 bpd. The company was contracted to supply six valve packages for different topside processes, including gas and water services. They will be installed within the 33,000 tons weight of the FPSO’s sides.

In this case, PJV worked closely with the client on the operator’s requirements to meet the project specifications and tight deadlines.

Brazil Is the Light at the End of the Tunnel

James Moir, Sales Director of the Group, PJV, said: “Brazil is a beacon at a very challenging time for the oil and gas industry, especially for FPSOs. These contracts highlight our technical and commercial expertise, where we can work with the client to meet design and supply requirements. As we own our factory in the UK, we have complete control and management of projects, which makes the process smooth and easy for our clients. We are excited to add these contract achievements to our portfolio and continue winning similar projects in the region.”

About the Other Two Contracts Involving Petrobras

Brazil Is the Light at the End of the Tunnel

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

Mercedes has created an electric motor with over 1,000 horsepower that weighs only 12.7 kilograms — less than a suitcase and with the highest power density ever recorded.

At over 8 meters tall and resembling a trunk, this creature dominated the Earth 400 million years before the dinosaurs — and science still doesn’t know what it was.

China inaugurates a 24 km monster that is a bridge, tunnel, and museum at the same time — and 90,000 cars pass through it every day.

Oil at the center of global disputes and historical transformations

Brazil already has the largest electric buses in daily operation in the world: Goiânia has put 28-meter giants from Volvo on the streets to transform urban transport, placing the country at the center of a new showcase for urban mobility.

Oil at the center of global disputes and historical transformations

More than R$ 526 million generated in oil in 2025 was not enough to place Espírito Santo in the lead of innovation — and the data shows exactly where the bottleneck is.

With salaries of up to R$ 30,000 and 2,500 open positions, a shipyard in Aracruz (ES) is at the center of a billion-dollar project by Petrobras that involves platforms capable of producing 225,000 barrels per day.

Impacts of tensions in the Middle East: how the rise in oil prices is transforming infrastructure contracts in Brazil, raising prices, delaying schedules, and exposing billion-dollar fragility in the sector.
