MDL to Support Maersk Supply Service for Work at Mero Field Off Brazil
Maersk Supply Service has awarded Scottish flex-lay specialist Maritime Developments (MDL) a solution-development scope in the Mero block in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil.The scope entails the development of an integrated spread of equipment and expert personnel to support installation of a dynamic riser assembly, which will enable connection to a grid of Permanent Reservoir Monitoring (PRM) sensors over wells of Mero 1 and Mero 2 projects in the basin’s ultra-deep waters.Besides the dynamic cable riser, complete with DUTA and pigtails, the PRM network also consists of backbone cables
Strohm Secures Major Pipe Supply Contract with TotalEnergies for Brazil Ops
Strohm has won a contract from TotalEnergies for the supply of thermoplastic composite pipeline (TCP) flowlines for an offshore field located in the Santos Basin, marking the largest commercial award for pipe supply in company’s 16-year history and a first project in the Brazilian pre-salt.Due for installation in 2026 at a water depth of 2,200 meters, Strohm’s TCP solution has been selected for the first time for flowlines to be installed in ultra deep water.Qualified for 30 years’ design life, this technology is immune to corrosion, including the Carbon dioxide-induced stress
Sapura Ônix Heads to Atlanta Field to Install Subsea Equipment
The specialized vessel Sapura Ônix is on its way to Atlanta Field in Santos Basin, offshore Brazil, where it will carry out the installation of subsea equipment to support the oil production, targeted for August 2024.Brazilian oil and gas company Enauta said the Sapura Ônix vessel is en route to install multiphase pumps (MPPs), umbilicals for power and data transmission, and production risers, connecting the wells’ subsea infrastructure to FPSO Atlanta.The FPSO Atlanta, chartered and operated by Malaysia’s Yinson Production, is currently being anchored on site, following its
Final Subsea System Components for Atlanta FPSO En Route to Brazil

Enauta Set to Receive Key Equipment for Atlanta Field Offshore Brazil
The first multiphase pumping subsea system (MPP), that will support oil and gas production at the Atlanta field in Brazil's Santos Basin, has been shipped from Norway, Brazilian oil and gas company Enauta has informed.The MPP, manufactured by OneSubsea, was loaded on January 21, 2024, in Norway ahead of shipping for Brazil.The delivery of the equipment according to the schedule highlighted one of the key challenges to reach FPSO Atlanta’s first oil aimed by August 2024, according to Enauta, which is the operator of the Atlanta field.“According to data presented at the Enauta Day
CRP Subsea Put to Work at Brazilian Oil Field
CRP Subsea, an AIS company, has secured a ‘substantial contract’ for the supply of distributed buoyancy modules (DBMs) to a deepwater oil field project in the Santos Basin, offshore Brazil.CRP Subsea secured was hired by a leading energy technology company, whose name was not disclosed.The company DBMs will be utilised on a flexible production riser transporting oil from the subsea facility to the floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel above.Specifically engineered, the DBMs will establish a dynamic subsea lazy-wave configuration to mitigate the top tension on the FPSO.
PXGEO Bags 4D OBN Project in Brazil
Marine geophysical service provider PXGEO on Monday announced it has secured a contract with Brazilian state-owned energy company Petrobras for a 4D Monitor Ocean Bottom Node (OBN) survey in the Santos Basin, Brazil.The survey is to be acquired in water depths up to 2,200 meters with a duration of approximately seven months.
CRP Subsea Secures 'Major' Contract for Deepwater Oil Field Project in Brazil
UK-based CRP Subsea has recently won a "major" contract from an unnamed "leading energy technology company," AIS, CRP's parent company, said this week.CRP Subsea will deliver 333 distributed buoyancy modules (DBMs) for a deepwater oil field project located in the pre-salt Santos Basin, offshore Brazil.Distributed buoyancy modules (DBMs) are typically used between structures and a surface vessel or platform, providing uplift generated by a two-part buoyancy element and a clamp.For this latest contract, CRP Subsea’s DBMs will be used on three flexible production risers
PXGEO Awarded 3D OBN Project in Brazil
Marine geophysical service provider PXGEO announced it has secured a contract with the Sépia Consortium for a 3D ocean bottom node (OBN) survey in the Santos Basin, Brazil. The survey is to be acquired in water depths to 2,300 meters with a duration of approximately 4 months.PXGEO executive chairman Peter Zickerman said, “This will be our fourth project acquired for Petrobras, since mid-2021, demonstrating our ongoing commitment to deliver safe and efficient deep water OBN acquisition solutions in Brazil.”Located around 250 kilometers off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, the Sépia
