The Provided Technology Will Use Membranes to Reduce Sulfate Levels of Seawater to Required Levels in FPSO in the Santos Basin

Modec closed a multimillion-dollar contract for Equinor’s FPSO, which is being built to operate in the Bacalhau Field, located in the Santos Basin. The contracted company is Water Technologies & Solutions from Suez, which will provide technologies to reduce the sulfate volume in seawater to the necessary level.

The contract for the construction of the FPSO with Equinor, operator of the Bacalhau Field in the Santos Basin, includes the supply of equipment, engineering, project management, procurement, and construction supervision. The FPSO’s production capacity is 220,000 barrels per day and natural gas of 15 million cubic meters per day.

Technology Supply for the FPSO

For oil production and extraction, treated seawater must be injected into the reservoir, which are referred to as SRUs in the industry. Sulfate removal devices for seawater that use ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) membranes are an important part of the process and are essential for the protection and operation of assets in FPSO.
