With Offshore Works Expected to Start This Year, Subsea7 Secures Contract with Giant Shell in the Campos Basin

Subsea 7 secured what it claims is a “significant” contract from Shell for the decommissioning of underwater infrastructure off the coast of Brazil, according to offshoreenergy and subsea7.com. The contract calls for Subsea 7 to carry out the decommissioning of the underwater infrastructure associated with the FPSO Fluminense in the Bijupirá and Salema fields, at a water depth of 700 meters.

The Contract and the Works to Be Carried Out

The company’s scope includes disconnection, recovery, and disposal of ten flexible risers, three umbilicals, and nine mooring cables. Offshore works are expected to start later this year, in December.

Yann Cottart, vice president of Subsea7 Brazil, said: “Twenty years ago, Subsea7 installed the flexible risers and umbilicals for Shell’s Bijupirá and Salema fields, and two decades later, we are proud to be one of the contractors chosen by Shell to participate in the completion of this field’s life cycle.”

About the FPSO and the Decommissioning Contract

The FPSO Fluminense, 390 meters long and with an LDT of 51,000 Mt, was commissioned in 2003 in the Bijupirá and Salema oil fields. These fields are located adjacent to each other, about 250 kilometers east of Rio de Janeiro, in water depths ranging from approximately 470 to 800 meters.

Shell formalized a limited notice to proceed (LNTP) with Modern American Recycling Services, Europe (MARS) earlier this year for the dismantling and green recycling of the FPSO Fluminense.

About the FPSO and the Decommissioning Contract

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.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

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.

In the Saudi Arabian desert, the world’s largest green hydrogen plant is 80% complete and will use 4 gigawatts of solar and wind energy to produce 600 tons of clean fuel per day when it opens in 2027.

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.

Argentina’s TV erupts and fires back: “the minister is selling us out to the Brazilians” after a snow campaign becomes the target of mockery.

A Brazilian municipality relies on 97% federal money, has 14 secretariats, 11 councilors, and a budget of R$ 131 million, but only 915 people are formally employed, and no one knows how the other 25,000 live.

Japan teaches the world how giant arched gates weighing up to 530 tons protect Osaka from devastating typhoons, block storm surges in minutes, and drain 330 m³/s to prevent urban flooding.

One of the biggest mudslides ever recorded on the Trans-Amazon Highway trapped trucks, cars, and motorcycles at the same spot for three consecutive days while a tractor with a winch tried to free them one by one under the rain.

The São Paulo government opens 1,700 spots in free courses in the capital and Greater São Paulo, with classes starting on April 27 and registrations available in person or online for areas with high demand in the job market.
