Next Modec FPSO for Búzios V Should Follow Company’s Previous Model with Part in Asia and Part in Brazilian Shipyard

Modec is in the market studying which shipyards, domestic and foreign, it should build its next FPSO, which will operate in the Búzios field, in the Santos Basin, starting in 2021. See Here! Next Generation FPSO from Modec Will Have New Design!
The FPSO, which will be the first to be installed under the production sharing regime, should follow the model that Modec has already been using, with the hull conversion in Asia and part of the manufacturing and integration of topsides modules in Brazil.

The FPSO for Búzios V is in the engineering detailing phase, and its construction should begin at the end of this year or the beginning of next year.
The FPSO for Búzios V will have a 21-year contract, will be installed in the northern part of the field, in water depth of 1,900 m, about 180 km from the coast, and will have the capacity to produce 150,000 bopd and compress 6 million m³/d of natural gas, being connected to up to 15 wells.

Modec has two other FPSOs under construction in China. The FPSO Guanabara, which will be installed in Mero, is having its hull converted at the DSIC shipyard, and the Carioca, which will be installed in the Sépia field, is undergoing conversion works at the Cosco shipyard.

The first FPSO to operate under the production sharing regime in the Búzios field will be named by Petrobras as Almirante Barroso and will be the first with the name of Brazilian national heroes, given that the company’s practice was to name units after Brazilian cities or bays in the country.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Australia prepares to dredge 96.5 million m³ in Moreton Bay to deepen, widen, and realign channels of the Port of Brisbane, in a project of up to 25 years designed to accommodate larger ships and enhance maritime safety and regional port efficiency.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Cristiano Ronaldo builds a billion-dollar mansion in Portugal with 54,000 square feet, a 3-acre plot facing the Atlantic, private spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and an estimated value of an impressive R$ 385 million.
