TechnipFMC announced Tuesday that it has been awarded a substantial subsea contract by Petrobras for the Búzios 6-9 fields. Located in the Santos basin offshore Brazil, these fields are part of the pre-salt area, with a water depth of 2,000 meters.

TechnipFMC will supply subsea trees with controls, electrical and hydraulic distribution units, topside systems, and installation and intervention support services with rental tooling. Delivery is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2023.

“The Búzios 6-9 fields are major developments in Brazil, and we are very honored to support Petrobras in this subsea project, which further strengthens our long-term partnership,” said Jonathan Landes, President, Subsea, at TechnipFMC.

He said this contract demonstrates TechnipFMC’s unique ability to deliver comprehensive solutions that meet clients’ needs and leverages the company’s expertise in the pre-salt field.

“Sustainability will be at the core of our project delivery. All of the subsea trees will be manufactured at our facilities in Brazil, which are powered entirely from renewable energy sources,” he stated.

The company official said the contract comes only weeks after TechnipFMC reached its recent milestone of manufacturing and delivering 700 trees in-country – a further testament to its long-term commitment in Brazil, where local content makes up over 97 percent of the workforce.

“TechnipFMC’s demonstrated history of project and technology delivery for Petrobras helped solidify the Lean manufacturing methodologies employed at its Rio Manufacturing Hub, improving safety and quality, while reducing waste and costs,” he said.

In Guyana, TechnipFMC has been awarded contracts by ExxonMobil for the production of subsea systems for its multiple offshore developments.
