The New Vessel From Ocyan Oil and Gas for the Decommissioning of Petrobras Is Expected to Begin Operations Still in January

The oil and gas company Ocyan recently announced the arrival in Brazilian waters of the new vessel from Solstad, the Normand Cutter, which will carry out decommissioning activities for some subsea components of Petrobras in the Campos Basin (Rio de Janeiro) and Sergipe-Alagoas, under a contract signed in 2022.

According to André Luiz Magalhães, Executive Manager of Submarine Construction at Ocyan Oil and Gas: “This is the first decommissioning contract for offshore production fields in Brazil, and we can say that we are at the forefront of this activity in our national production chain. The experience we will gain from the project will provide us with great expertise. This project marks Ocyan’s return to the subsea construction sector. We envision a promising future with new opportunities in other companies, including international operators.”

The Normand Cutter is an offshore construction vessel (OCV) for decommissioning, measuring 127.5 meters in length and equipped with a crane that has a capacity of lifting 300 tons, as well as a flexible pipe lay system of up to 100 tons.

Origin of the Ocyan Decommissioning Vessel

The decommissioning vessel was in Norway, from where it departed for Scotland, where the pipe retrieval and lay systems were installed. It then began its journey to Brazil on December 12, 2022.

Starting in the second half of January 2023, the vessel will conduct its first campaign to retrieve equipment in the Campos Basin, where it will operate for two weeks and unload the structures in Vitória (ES) for Petrobras.

At the end of this first stage, still in Espírito Santo, it will complete the final stage of installing the equipment, reels, and storage spools for flexible pipes, necessary for the continuation of Petrobras’s project.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

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.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

A producer from Santa Catarina started with a poultry farm of just 7,500 birds in 1994 and three decades later manages 21 farms thanks to a simple strategy he learned early on.

China wants to eliminate diesel trucks, betting on electric models that can cut oil consumption by up to 50%, reduce pollution, and change cargo transportation worldwide.

Melting ice is altering the planet’s weather, days are getting longer, Earth’s rotation is slowing down, and scientists are pointing to a phenomenon not seen in millions of years.

More than €600,000 in gold hidden in pots and an “invisible” safe inside an old house turns a small French town into the stage for a discovery that reveals how entire fortunes can remain buried for decades without anyone noticing.

Japan enters the war with the Terra A1 drone priced at $2,000 and turns the math against Putin by taking down swarms of Iranian drones for a fraction of the cost.

The government will pay R$ 1.20 for each liter of diesel that Brazil imports and for the first time in history requires distributors to reveal how much they profit — those who hide their margins will face fines of up to R$ 500 million…

Under kilometers of water, rock, and salt, Brazil hides a colossal wealth that led an official guide from the U.S. government to recognize the country as the owner of the largest ultra-deep oil reserves in the world.

Iran said that the Strait of Hormuz is open, but in practice only 1 non-Iranian oil tanker managed to cross in 24 hours — before the blockade, 100 ships passed per day.

Petrobras completes 1,300 hours of work and 15 km of subsea lines to connect the Búzios 90 well to the P-79 — the platform is ready to produce 180,000 barrels per day and is just awaiting ANP approval.

Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz completely open this Friday, and the price of oil plummets nearly 10% in a few hours — the largest drop since the beginning of the conflict.
