Petrobras (PBR - Free Report) , the state-owned oil and gas company of Brazil, awarded a five-year contract to Weatherford International (WFRD - Free Report) , an oilfield service provider, for providing intervention services offshore Brazil.
Weatherford, in close cooperation with Petrobras, has been providing subsea intervention and commissioning services in the country for more than 20 years. In order to further improve this offering, the U.S. player will provide its digitalization solution, the Centro well construction optimization platform that provides better visibility and performance during operations.
According to the president and CEO of Weatherford, Girish Saligram, the legacy of collaboration to increase Petrobras’ assets lifespan while lowering non-productive time will be further enhanced through WFRD’s cutting-edge digitalization offering.
Recently, PBR reached a milestone with the sale of the P-32 FPSO to Gerdau and the Ecovix shipyard last week for recycling. This will be the first commercial vessel to be dismantled in Brazil at the end of its lifecycle.
