Total Plans to Sign an Agreement by the End of This Year to Hire a Logistics Support Base That Will Support the Exploratory Oil and Gas Campaign in the Campos Basin

The multinational oil and gas company Total is preparing to contract services for its exploratory campaign in the Campos Basin, located off the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, which will begin in 2021. The company will tender a support base for logistics operations, in addition to requesting that the winning contractor provide a fluid processing plant to be installed on-site.

Total’s drilling campaign will be conducted in the offshore block C-M-541 of the Campos Basin. The area was auctioned off in 2019 in the 16th Bidding Round and anticipates drilling two exploratory oil and gas wells.

Proposal submissions are expected to start this Monday (31). In the notice, Total requires pricing for three to five weekly dockings, in addition to requiring that the offered logistics unit has a free and covered area for storing equipment and work bases for the employees of the multinational and outsourced workers.

The contract duration is estimated to be seven months to one year, and Total plans to sign the agreement by the end of this year 2020. The multinational does not specify the location of the base; however, according to experts, proposals related to the Port of Açu may have better chances, since the campaign will be in the northern part of the Campos Basin.

Companies such as Brasil Port, Brasco, Dome, Technip, InterMoor, and Port of Açu are considered potential companies for the logistics base tender for Total.
