The ROVs Delivered to OceanPact by the United Kingdom Are Destined for the Implementation of Petrobras Oil Fields

Forum Energy Technologies (FET), from the United Kingdom, delivered three remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to OceanPact, based in Brazil, for deployment in Petrobras oil fields.

The new 200HP Perry XLX-C ROVs, manufactured at FET’s facilities in the United Kingdom in Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire, will be deployed on two OceanPact vessels to support inspection, repair, and maintenance (IRM) services for the Brazilian state-owned oil and gas company, Petrobras.

Each XLX-C was provided to OceanPact for use in Petrobras with a suspended tool skid for additional tools and mounting options and a comprehensive package of supplemental tools, including torque tools, verification units, and fluid injection systems.

In addition, the ROVs were delivered to OceanPact for use in Petrobras fields with a launch and active compensated Dynacon recovery system, as well as associated surface control and power facilities.

FET also delivered a VMAX ROV Simulator configured with a complete XLX-C Console, which is supplied with a range of training exercises or ‘scenarios’, each designed to train and assess the pilot’s competency in a variety of skills, such as cable management, manipulator control, and tool operation.

According to Simone Pizzolato, FET’s commercial manager in the UK: “We continue to see high demand for our latest generation of XLX-C vehicles, as our customers recognize the benefits of their enhanced performance in a more compact form.”

According to FET, the 200HP XLX-C rated for 3,000 m depth offers the high performance of a work-class vehicle in a smaller form. It is also noteworthy that the vehicles feature a high-flow auxiliary hydraulic circuit combined with a high load capacity to transport additional tools and sensors.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

A producer from Santa Catarina started with a poultry farm of just 7,500 birds in 1994 and three decades later manages 21 farms thanks to a simple strategy he learned early on.

Under kilometers of water, rock, and salt, Brazil hides a colossal wealth that led an official guide from the U.S. government to recognize the country as the owner of the largest ultra-deep oil reserves in the world.

Iran said that the Strait of Hormuz is open, but in practice only 1 non-Iranian oil tanker managed to cross in 24 hours — before the blockade, 100 ships passed per day.

Petrobras completes 1,300 hours of work and 15 km of subsea lines to connect the Búzios 90 well to the P-79 — the platform is ready to produce 180,000 barrels per day and is just awaiting ANP approval.

Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz completely open this Friday, and the price of oil plummets nearly 10% in a few hours — the largest drop since the beginning of the conflict.
