Saipem Signs Agreement With Petrobras for Development of Autonomous Underwater Drones in Brazil

The Italian company Saipem announced today (28) the achievement of two new major contracts in the area of underwater robotics and offshore engineering. One of these contracts was signed with Petrobras, aiming at the development and testing of autonomous underwater drones, using Saipem’s fleet of underwater drones, in conjunction with the Flatfish AUV autonomous underwater vehicle.

The agreement also provides for the qualification of autonomous drone-based services, paving the way for future offshore inspection contracts in Brazil. This contract represents a significant milestone in Saipem’s innovative underwater robotics program, enabling the global application of underwater drones in offshore projects throughout the entire value chain.

This project involves the manufacturing and installation of five platforms and associated pipelines and submarine cables. The full scope of work will be carried out in-country, strengthening the long-standing relationship between Saipem and Saudi Aramco, as well as consolidating the company’s strategic position in the Middle East.

Saipem Secures Million-Dollar Offshore Drilling Contracts in the Middle East and Mediterranean Sea

Last week, Saipem had already announced the achievement of two more offshore drilling contracts worth a total of approximately US$ 550 million. The first contract foresees the continuation of operations for the self-elevating intervention rig Perro Negro 7 in the Middle East, securing an additional ten-year period for the existing contract.

The second contract involves the use of the Semi-Submersible Unit Scarabeo 9 for an estimated period of six months, with the possibility of optional extension. These contracts reinforce Saipem’s prominent position in the offshore drilling sector and its ability to provide high-performance solutions to its clients.
