Norwegian Solstad Offshore Signed a Contract with Queiroz Galvão Exploração e Produção S.A. (QGEP) for One of Its Construction Support Vessels. The Company Also Signed Two Extensions for Vessels Working in Brazil with Equinor.

Solstad Offshore said on Monday that QGEP has contracted the Normand Pioneer CSV to work in Brazil. The 19-year-old CSV received a firm two-year contract with two annual options. The contract will start in the first quarter of 2019 and will support production in the Atlanta Field in the Santos Basin.

According to Solstad Offshore, the Normand Pioneer will replace the AHTS Far Sagaris, which is currently working in the field. The vessel’s contract expires in the first quarter of 2019.

It is worth noting that Solstad Offshore, under the name Solstad Farstad, signed an extension with TechnipFMC earlier this year for a structural agreement covering the provision of vessels for ploughing and excavation operations. The framework agreement, valid until December next year, also includes the Normand Pioneer.

Far Scotsman and Far Serenade Extension

In addition, Solstad Offshore said on Monday that it has secured two six-month extensions for the PSV Far Scotsman and Far Serenade, from Norwegian oil giant Equinor. The vessels will continue to support Equinor’s activities in Brazil. The previous extension for both vessels was three months, which was set to end in December 2018. The Far Scotsman, built in 2012, and Far Serenade, eight years old, received their initial six-month contract in November 2017.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

James Webb finds a deformed lemon-shaped planet orbiting a dead star, with an atmosphere of helium and carbon, soot and carbon clouds that could turn into diamond in the depths; composition defies everything scientists expected from a Jupiter-sized world.

The James Webb telescope detected the climate of a planet 280 light-years from Earth, with days hot enough to forge iron and nights covered by dense clouds, where winds reach 8,000 km/h.

China is equipping a scientific base in the heart of Antarctica with solar, wind, hydrogen, and battery power to operate even during the polar night in the Ross Sea.

A British company installed Japan’s first megawatt-scale tidal turbine under the Naru Strait, generating clean electricity from the predictable force of the tides, without relying on wind or sun.

End of bricklayers laying brick by brick: compact robots use AI, carry bricks and mortar, pass through doors, work in teams, and are already building real facades in Europe.
