Work Detail |
Houston-based oilfield service giant SLB has won a contract from Petrobras for integrated services across all the operator’s offshore fields in Brazil.
Under the contract, estimated at about $800m, SLB will oversee the construction of more than 100 deepwater wells, utilising advanced drilling, cementing and drilling fluids technologies on up to nine ultra-deepwater rigs.
The services will primarily be provided in the Campos, Santos, and Espírito Santo Basins, along with other Petrobras-operated fields, including exploratory wells.
SLB said that operations in the Equatorial Margin are also planned, pending exploration license approval within the three-year contract period starting in April 2025.
“SLB has maintained a strong relationship with Petrobras as a technology partner for many decades,” said Wallace Pescarini, president of the Offshore Atlantic basin at SLB, adding: “This contract builds on our existing work with Petrobras across its offshore basins and introduces new technologies that enhance both operational and environmental efficiency.” |
