Foresea’s drillship Norbe IX, located at the Sagitário exploratory well in the Santos Basin, received a unique visit from the president of the American Petroleum Institute (API), Mike Sommers.

The certification attests that safety, operational efficiency, and sustainability requirements are met and combined in the pursuit of the best results in natural gas and oil exploration and production activities.

During the visit, which included other API members, Mike Sommers had the opportunity to closely observe the work of the collaborators on the rig, as well as the Institute’s efforts to support the global oil and natural gas industry. Sommers highlighted Foresea’s quality, efficiency, and safety standards and even donned the company’s jumpsuit.

The executive described the experience as a “fantastic opportunity to see API’s work on-site.” He emphasized that “Brazilian workers are producing the necessary supplies to reinforce energy security at a critical moment in world history.”.
