Offshore Giant in the Riser Segment Has Arrived in Brazil, Acquired 100% of Another Company in the Field, and Is Already Setting Up. Opportunities Ahead.
The company Oil States offshore is maximizing its horizons in the DPR inspection sector (drilling risers), and as such, it ended up buying the company MR Inspection last week. With this acquisition, the company’s activities will occur both onshore and offshore. The CEO of the Brazil branch, Marcio Robles, reported that in the future the company will also operate in production DPRs; currently, it only works in drilling. Subsea equipment and connector manufacturing are also part of the planning.
Why Did Oil States Buy MR Inspection?
The main goal of Oil States was to save on logistics, as inspecting and maintaining these risers requires offloading equipment, and then reloading it, which demands significant cost and time. Based on this, the decision to purchase MR Inspection was made, as it was the only company with this type of expertise. With the development of a technology, it is now possible to significantly reduce these costs, as this type of work can now be done offshore.

The Company’s Factory in the State of RJ
Next year, the factory installation in Santa Cruz-RJ will be fully operational. It will manufacture casing connectors, subsea equipment such as Pipeline End Manifold (PLEM) and Pipeline End Termination (PLET). As the advancements and productivity of the pre-salt become more challenging, the company will also start manufacturing flex joints.
It Will Grow Significantly in Brazil
Oil States is fully confident that Brazil will take a giant leap forward. The upcoming rounds of oil auctions will be decisive for the company, as national and international companies will seek its specialized services. There will be many hires, and the market will be very active.
