Contracts Aim to Support Modec’s FPSOs in the Supply of Equipment to Vessels Chartered by Petrobras in the Pre-salt

Another major partnership has been finalized at the beginning of this year, as Schlumberger published in its most recent financial report, on Thursday (4/18), the signing of two contracts with the Japanese company Modec.
The contracts are for the supply of oil separation and treatment equipment and CO2 processing for use in FPSOs that Modec will maintain under contract with Petrobras.

Modec is currently building two FPSOs for Petrobras, the FPSO Guanabara, which will operate in the Mero 1 field in the Libra area, and the FPSO Carioca, which will operate in Sépia, in the onerous assignment, both in the Pre-salt of the Santos Basin.
The outlook is even better for Modec, as the company is still competing in Petrobras’ tenders to build the FPSO of Búzios V and is participating in the tender for two more FPSOs for the Marlim field.

Schlumberger’s Perspective

The company has an expectation of growth in investments in Exploration and Production (E&P) of around 7% to 8% in 2019, largely due to the increasing number of rigs operating in the Brazilian offshore and the projects that are yet to come.

Schlumberger’s optimism is due not only to the increase in demand for offshore equipment but also to the production cuts that OPEC and Russia have been making and the slowdown in shale production in North America.

Despite registering a 4% decline this quarter compared to the last quarter of 2018, the company saw a 1% increase in the annual comparison, recording revenue of US$ 7.9 billion.
In total, the company’s profit fell 21% compared to the last quarter of last year and 19% compared to the same period in 2018, but nonetheless, profit was US$ 421 million in the first three months of the year.

Following the same trend of contract signings with Petrobras, BW Offshore signed a contract with Petrobras for a one-year extension for the leasing and operation of the BW Cidade de São Vicente. Click here to learn more!

Schlumberger’s Perspective

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.

While the U.S. still faces limitations in deep space, China is developing unprecedented technology with strategic satellites that maintain communication with the far side of the Moon and aims for dominance by 2030.

In Botswana, a salt flat of up to 16,000 km² that was once an African megalake spends months as an absolute white desert, but during the rainy season it transforms into a shallow sea that reappears from nowhere and can be seen from space in the middle of southern Africa.

The Blood Falls of Antarctica hide a living ecosystem trapped under the ice for over 2 million years, where microbes survive without light, without oxygen, and without ever having seen the Sun.

Bavarian archaeologists unearthed a medieval skeleton that had an articulated iron hand in place of its left arm, and the discovery reveals that doctors were already creating sophisticated prosthetics over 500 years ago.

The CEO of Honor in Spain says that smartphones will change with AI, foldables, and even robot phones; the component crisis is making cheap models more expensive in 2026 and shifting the focus to premium.

The backhoe digs a large pool at 6 meters and opens a giant water fountain: sand rises from the bottom, drains with pipes and gravel hold, and the flow reaches 110 thousand liters per hour, nonstop.

Oil drives Brazil’s GDP and repositions the country among the largest economies in the world.

Science discovers that the air is not empty as it seems, but rather a gigantic natural archive that stores DNA of animals, plants, and humans without anyone noticing.

Ocean warming spikes in 2026 even without El Niño, approaches the record of 2024, and raises global alarm with the Arctic at its lowest ice level and an energy imbalance of the Earth at its highest in 65 years.

The seven-blade propeller could equip the M700 FURY aircraft, making it quieter and more efficient, after certification from EASA.
