Oceaneering International Received a Contract from Petrobras for Offshore BOP Tethering Services in Brazil

The offshore BOP contract from Oceaneering with Petrobras has a duration of one year with the option to extend for another year. The scope of work includes real-time riser data acquisition and analysis for dynamic positioning offshore platform operations for up to seven wells in water depths between 150 and 700 m.

Suction Piles for Petrobras

Oceaneering will provide eight suction piles that will be manufactured locally with Petrobras, as well as 10 wellhead load relief tensioners (WLR), a monitoring system to be integrated into the BOP, and a suction pile pump to install the suction piles.

A tug supply vessel (AHTS) will launch and install the suction piles and tensioners. The drilling rig will be used to connect the tensioners to the BOP.

About Oceaneering International

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

The coastal El Niño is not the classic El Niño, but it already raises a question in Brazil: can the phenomenon alter rain, heat, and winter?

The commander of the Brazilian Army publicly admitted that the country now perceives real threats in South America, something that, according to him, did not exist in the past, and advocates for the increasing use of drones and technology to secure the borders.

In China, even those who beg on the street already have a QR Code, paper money has practically disappeared from daily life in just ten years, and the entire country has come to live on invisible payments via mobile phones.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Scientists considered detonating 213 nuclear bombs in the Sahara to create an artificial sea the size of El Salvador, with each explosion being a hundred times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb, and the goal was to generate more energy than Egypt’s largest hydroelectric plant.
