Prosafe, a leading company in the provision of floating accommodations for the offshore industry, announced that the third unit of its fleet, named Safe Eurus, has commenced operations in Brazil.

The vessel, which is a semi-submersible accommodation platform, has been contracted by Petrobras, the Brazilian state energy giant, to provide support services for maintenance and safety operations in the Campos Basin.

The Safe Eurus has been designed to be highly efficient and versatile, with the capacity to accommodate 500 people on board and operate in deep waters. It was built at the Cosco Qidong shipyard in China and will join two other units of Prosafe’s fleet already operating in Brazil: the Safe Concordia and the Safe Notos.
