From Sapura to Seagems: The Transformation of the Leader in Submarine Engineering
Celebrating its tenth anniversary, Sapura, known for its expertise in submarine engineering, adopts a new name: Seagems. This change, aligned with its history of innovation, symbolizes a new era for the company that is ready to expand its scope in the oil and gas sector. Located in Rio de Janeiro, Seagems reflects its new name inspired by the names of its six vessels: Diamond, Topaz, Onyx, Jade, Emerald, and Ruby, representing the company’s valuable fleet and team.
“The transition to Seagems is not just a name change, it is an evolution of our identity that reinforces our mission to deliver meaningful and quality innovative solutions. Our team, the true gems of our operation, is the great inspiration behind this new chapter,” explains Rogerio Salbego, CEO of Seagems.
The New Organizational Structure
Seagems will continue to provide high-quality services in submarine engineering, but under a new structure divided into Seagems Offshore and Seagems Solutions. This reorganization aims to optimize operational efficiency, allowing greater flexibility and capacity to expand into new markets and subsea projects, meeting the needs of shareholders, customers, and partners.

Maintaining Excellence and Innovation
Despite the name change, Seagems’ internal routine will maintain its essence with a smooth transition, ensuring the continuity of benefits for employees and maintaining the same trust relationship with partners and clients.
Seagems prides itself on its modern fleet consisting of six vessels, each equipped to carry out complex submarine construction operations. With 36% of the national market in subsea pipeline interconnection and maintenance projects, the company maintains exemplary performance, with 97.6% uptime since the start of its operations in 2014.
Training and Sustainability at Seagems
With a team of over 1000 professionals, Seagems not only leads in operations but also in talent development. About 45% of offshore professionals were trained internally, and over 2000 employees have been trained at the SEA Training Center – Seagems Excellence Academy.
“Our continuous investments in training and development are fundamental to the sustainability of our operations and the safety of our employees. We are always seeking to elevate our governance and reporting standards, aligning our operations with the most advanced sustainability practices,” emphasizes Salbego.
Leadership and Technological Innovation
Seagems stands out not only for its operational capacity but also for being a pioneer in various techniques and technologies in the oil and gas sector. The company was the first to install a Christmas Tree in deep waters using a PLSV vessel and continues to innovate with projects that cross technological and operational boundaries.
With a continuous commitment to excellence and a clear vision for the future, Seagems reaffirms its place at the forefront of the oil and gas industry, ready to face the challenges of tomorrow and continue delivering exceptional results.
