The New Partnership Between Petrobras and Halliburton Is Celebrated as a Great Technological Achievement Among Oil Well Companies

The American oilfield services company Halliburton installed a subsea hydraulic wet connection in deep water for the Brazilian oil company Petrobras, which is seen as “a significant achievement” in subsea electric completion technology.

Upon announcing this well installation, Halliburton described it as “the first subsea hydraulic wet connection in the deep water sector” and highlighted that the subsea Fuzion EH hydraulic connector helps increase well recovery factors while maintaining the integrity of the SmartWell completion systems throughout the well’s life cycle.

Mark Dawson, Vice President of Halliburton Completion Technology, commented: “The Fuzion-EH connector is the first step in the fully electric intelligent completion journey and is a collaborative development product with Petrobras and Shell. This achievement paves the way for us to offer customers the autonomous capability to control and manage reservoirs in their wells and assets.”

Furthermore, the Fuzion-EH connector is expected to help facilitate safer and simpler intervention operations and prevent potential damage to the formation due to workover operations. The oilfield giant plans a future version of a dual shooting Fuzion-EH connector for qualification and implementation by Petrobras in 2023.

This system provides “additional benefits” in the SmartWell system installations while “maintaining the benefits of the single shooting system,” outlined Halliburton.

Olivier Wambersie, General Manager of Technology for Brazil, Shell, commented: “This significant well technology development marks the first single trip, multiple zones, open hole completion. It was a remarkable example of teamwork, partnership, and technical collaboration among the operators and Halliburton within the Brazilian ecosystem. The first application of this technology was made possible through ANP Levy.”

Halliburton: A Pioneer in Well Technology

Halliburton has been a pioneer in the development and deployment of SmartWell system technology for 25 years, installing nearly 1,400 SmartWell systems globally and more than 100 in Brazil, providing its clients with control over 3,000 zonal intervals.

Regarding Halliburton’s recent activities, it is worth noting that the U.S. player is one of the companies that signed corporate purchase agreements (CPAs) with Aramco earlier this month.

While an average building in London or New York takes three years to be completed, in China a 26-story tower went up in five days with about 100 workers, and the global modular construction market already moves US$ 95 billion per year.

A Chinese factory in Guangdong is assembling a humanoid robot every 30 minutes while Tesla, Figure, and Boston Dynamics still struggle to deliver 10 thousand per year.

Australia installs giant concrete structures on the seabed 800 meters from the shore to create an ocean intake for desalination that will draw in saltwater and produce 30 million liters of drinking water per day.

While cities spend fortunes patching potholes and tons of plastic become waste, the Netherlands transforms over 218,000 recycled cups into a modular bike path that can conceal drainage, cables, and pipes.

While communities suffer from water scarcity and the advancing desert, women in Morocco use nets high up in the mountains to trap fog droplets, fill reservoirs, and transport drinking water through more than 10 km of piping.

A perfect 6 km ring in the far east of Russia intrigues NASA satellites as it appears to be a meteor crater or an extinct volcano, but the agency has already confirmed that it is neither and harbors a much stranger origin beneath the Earth.

Australia positions a barge with 78-meter legs at sea to install ocean sockets connected to tunnels under the seabed to supply a desalination plant that will produce 150 million liters of water per day in Alkimos until 2028.

From a simple approach at the gate to more than R$ 45,000 in donations, the story of a gardener offering volunteer work shows how a well-tended garden can pave the way for food, hope, and an almost finished home for a Brazilian family.

Brazil could become a global oil powerhouse with reserves jumping from 17 billion to 23.5 billion barrels, investments of US$ 30 billion per year, and exploration in the Equatorial Margin that could extend Brazilian production until 2042.

While Brazil discussed the transition, Petrobras unlocked 11 new platforms in the pre-salt until 2027 — Búzios alone receives 6 FPSOs and targets 1 million barrels/day.
