Dutch Company Wins The Bid And Will Build The Floating Production Storage And Offloading Unit That Will Operate In The Mero 2 Field In The Libra Block.
After closing a leniency agreement with the Federal Public Prosecution Service last year, which returned R$ 1.4 billion to the public coffers, SBM is back in the game and on top.
The Dutch Company Won The Bid Competing Against Modec And MISC and will build the FPSO that will operate in the Mero 2 field in the Libra block.
The charter contract is for 22 years and marks the company’s resurgence in Petrobras bids after its leniency agreement was approved by the Brazilian courts.
SBM submitted the lowest bid in the bidding process and now depends on Petrobras to validate the results. It is worth noting that the company is the operator of the Brasa shipyard in Niterói and had announced it would keep it closed for a long time due to a lack of projects.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state aims to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.

As part of the agreement that allowed the company to participate in the bidding process, the Dutch group also committed to providing information gathered in investigations regarding commission payments to lobbyists and their companies between 2004 and 2006, as well as maintaining a compliance program and making documents available for assessment.
The FPSO
The unit to be built by SBM will have the capacity to process up to 180,000 barrels of crude oil and compress 12 million cubic meters of gas per day.
It is estimated that the FPSO Mero 2 will be ready to start operations by 2022. The equipment will operate in water depths of around 2,000 meters and will have similar characteristics to the Mero 1 project, with some optimizations implemented.
PPSA (Pré-Sal Petróleo) manages the production sharing contract and Petrobras leads the Libra Consortium that operates the Mero field, holding a 40% stake, alongside Shell with 20%, Total with 20%, CNPC with 10%, and CNOOC Limited with the remaining 10%.
