The Brazilian state oil and gas giant, Petrobras, signed contracts totaling US$ 1.8 billion with the Malaysian company Sapura Energy for the construction of six multifunctional vessels for pipe laying (PLSVs), according to the Offshore Energy website.

The Petrobras vessels will be used for subsea engineering services, installation, and other related services in Brazilian waters. They will be capable of performing a wide range of operations, such as the installation of flexible pipes, electro-hydraulic umbilicals, power cables, among others, at depths of up to 3,000 meters.

Contracts Closed by Petrobras Have a Duration of 3 Months

The contracts last for three years, starting on different mobilization dates, with the longest contract valid until 2028. Sapura Energy expects these contracts to positively contribute to its profits for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025, and in the following years.

These Petrobras contracts represent a significant milestone for Sapura Energy, especially after being recently selected to provide subsea services for the Petronas group of companies and contractors of oil arrangements. In particular, Sapura Subsea Services secured a contract for the provision of services for Pan Malaysia to Sarawak Shell and Sabah Shell Petroleum Company, as well as for PTTEP Sabah Oil Limited for Package B1 – Sabah (Deepwater) and PTTEP Sarawak Oil Limited for Package C1 – Sarawak.

This series of Petrobras contracts highlights the prominent position of Sapura Energy in the subsea services market and reinforces its global presence as one of the leading companies in the sector.
