Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo, Investment Foci, Will Be the States to Receive the Majority of Job Openings Offered by Petrobras.

Petrobras is about to take a significant step in increasing its production and creating new job openings, with substantial investments in the Brazilian shipbuilding industry.

At an event held by Transpetro in Angra dos Reis (RJ), the company’s president, Magda Chambriard, shared details about the company’s expansion plans. Among the main projects is the forecast to produce 1.5 million barrels of oil per day at the Búzios field, one of the company’s most promising areas.

The expansion of this production will be made possible by a robust plan to contract support vessels, which will bring positive impacts to the national ship and shipyard market.

Chambriard highlighted that, by 2026, Petrobras will contract 44 new vessels to support this operation. The number may be even higher by 2029, when Petrobras plans to launch new platforms, totaling 10 units, seven of which are already contracted and three yet to be tendered.

Billion-Dollar Investments in Shipyards and Vessels

The state-owned company is already demonstrating its commitment to the local industry and to job creation. Only at Brazilian shipyards, Petrobras will allocate R$ 58 billion by 2026 for the construction of processing plants for the 10 new platforms, particularly highlighting the new FPSO Almirante Tamandaré, which has begun its operations at the Búzios field.

This investment will result in the creation of more than 60,000 direct and indirect jobs in Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo, states that will concentrate a large portion of the activities. In addition, another R$ 20 billion will be invested in the construction of support vessels, which will generate 27,000 new job openings.

These investments will be essential to ensure that Petrobras continues its path of expansion and innovation in the oil and gas sector, maintaining focus on local content and strengthening the national industry. The increasing local content requirement, which may reach 65%, is another important measure aimed at benefiting the Brazilian economy.

Commitment to Safety and Sustainability

The president of Petrobras also mentioned the importance of ensuring safety in all of the company’s operations, especially concerning the exploration of new frontiers, such as the Brazilian Equatorial Margin.

Petrobras has committed to conducting these activities responsibly, always respecting environmental requirements and with the appropriate monitoring, should it obtain the necessary licenses.

Chambriard also emphasized that the company has 19 operational bases ready to act in emergency situations, reinforcing the safety of its operations.

To this end, Petrobras has established strategic partnerships, such as collaboration with NASA for monitoring potential oil spills. One of the highlights of this partnership is the use of cutting-edge equipment, including one of the four devices in the world capable of plugging a well should any type of leakage be detected.
