Modules Are from FPSO Carioca, Which Belongs to Modec and Will Operate in the Sépia Field. The MV-30 Will Only Have the Flare Installed and Commissioned in Brazil by Brasfels
The two modules of the flare system of FPSO Carioca, owned by Modec, which are being built at the Brasfels shipyard in Angra dos Reis, when ready, will be loaded onto a barge heading to China, where they will be installed and integrated into the hull.
The news is not good for the approximately 25,000 unemployed people in the city of Angra dos Reis, where Brasfels (formerly Verolme) is located, as the scope of this project is to install and commission the flare when the FPSO finishes its work in China and comes to Brazil.
The Flare services at Brasfels are expected to last 3 months and are joining the resumption of work on the two Semisubmersible drilling units from Sete Brasil, which is negotiating better prices with the winner of the bidding process.

Aiming to resume work on the drilling units, the shipyard announced around 500 temporary hires and reached 1,700 jobs, not bad for a company that ended last year with about 1,000 employees.
FPSO Carioca
Owned by Modec, FPSO Carioca is the 11th FPSO project from Modec in Brazil, with a capacity to process 180,000 barrels per day and 212 million cubic meters of gas per day.
The storage capacity of the unit is 1.4 million barrels of crude oil and will be deployed in the Sépia field, located in the pre-salt region of the Santos Basin, about 250 kilometers off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The forecast for the first oil extraction is set for 2021, and the FPSO will operate in the Santos Basin under the onerous assignment regime.
Modec signed the construction, chartering, and operation contract with Petrobras in July 2018, and construction work in China began at the end of that year.
