The EBR shipyard (RS), accredited by Petrobras and recognized as its best supplier in 2019 for the delivery of 2 modules for the FPSO Guanabara from Modec (MV-31) in less than a year, held yesterday (03/06) the KOM (Kick Off Meeting) with the participation of Petrobras and Modec for the construction of 4 Topsides Modules for the FPSO Almirante Barroso (MV-32). The KOM is the meeting that marks the beginning of the project and where its needs are aligned with all expectations, as well as where the project manager and his management plan are presented.
