The FPSO Anita Garibaldi platform is part of the Petrobras project that aims to revitalize oil and natural gas production in Campo de Marlim. The vessel arrived at Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz, where it will undergo commissioning and testing activities.

The project to revitalize the production of oil and natural gas in Campo de Marlim, located in the Campos Basin, is advancing successfully. The FPSO platform Anita Garibaldi arrived at Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz, in Espírito Santo, and will undergo commissioning activities, in addition to operational tests and evaluations. Then, the vessel will leave for Campo de Marlim, where it is expected to start operations in the third quarter of 2023.

Petrobras advances in the project to revitalize the Campo de Marlim with the arrival of the FPSO Anita Garibaldi at Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz

The company Petrobras continues to advance successfully in the activities that precede the definitive start of the revitalization of oil and natural gas production in Campo de Marlim, located in the Campos Basin.

This is because the FPSO Anita Garibaldi platform, the vessel responsible for operating the project, is already in Brazilian waters.

The vessel is currently at Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz, located in the state of Espírito Santo. There, the FPSO will undergo commissioning activities, in addition to regulatory inspections and operational tests.

After the completion of all tests at Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz, the vessel Anita Garibaldi will head to Bacia de Campos, to await the start of production at Campo de Marlim, scheduled for the third quarter of 2023.

The vessel has the capacity to produce up to 80 barrels of oil per day (bpd) and process up to 7 million cubic meters of natural gas per day. As a reminder, FPSO Anita Garibaldi is part of the Marlim and Voador Revitalization Project.

With its project to revitalize Campo de Marlim, Petrobras intends to connect the new platform to 43 wells, with peak production expected for 2026.

Thus, the FPSO platform Anita Garibaldi will join Anna Nery in replacing the nine platforms currently operating in the region, namely: P-18, P-19, P-20, P-26, P-32, P-33, P-35, P-37 and P-47.

In the production resumption project, Petrobras still intends to reduce by 60% the carbon emissions associated with the production of the areas, ensuring more environmental commitment in operations.

Discover the Jurong Aracruz Shipyard

The Jurong Aracruz Shipyard arrived in Espírito Santo in 2011 to carry out an unprecedented type of business in the State. With the advancement of oil exploration in the pre-salt layer, the expectations of investments in naval infrastructure made it necessary to create an appropriate shipyard to meet the demands of this industry, which requires cutting-edge technology and quality products to carry out bold projects. .

The structure offered by the shipyard is prepared to meet not only the demands of Petrobras, but the requirements of the world market, in the manufacture of vessels and jackets (basic structures of oil platforms), generating business for local suppliers, employment and income for local workers and currency for Espírito Santo.
