据5月10日offshore energy消息：巴西石油天然气巨头巴西国家石油公司(Petrobras)已与吉宝造船厂(Keppel)签署了价值23亿美元的合同，将为桑托斯盆地盐下地区Búzios油田安装第七套P-78装置。
吉宝公司在今年4月证实，该公司正在与巴西国家石油公司就Buzios油田建造FPSO合同进行谈判，据透露，该合同已经签署。
根据巴国油周一的声明，该平台属于FPSO类型，是一种生产、存储和输送石油的浮式装置，每日处理能力为18万桶石油和720万立方米天然气。计划于2024年交付。该合同价值估计约为23亿美元。
FPSO的供应将来自工程，采购和建筑承包方式以及该公司针对其自身平台开发新项目的战略，其中包括从盐下安装的FPSO中汲取经验教训，包括承包和施工方面。
该制造商表示，吉宝运维公司将在其位于新加坡、巴西的船厂制造重达4.3万吨的上层模块，并承担FPSO的集成和调试工作。
吉宝运维的合作伙伴现代重工有限公司将提供85000吨的船体和240人的居住区。完工后，FPSO将转移到Buzios油田，吉宝运维将在此进行海上调试工作的最后阶段。
据公开资格预审规定的要求，该合同预计将有25%符合当地内容，服务将通过国家公司的伙伴关系或分包合同在巴西执行。
该项目预计将通过刚性生产和注入管线以及柔性服务管线组成的海底基础设施，将13口井连接到FPSO，其中6口生产井和7口注入井。
2010年发现的Búzios油田是世界上最大的深水油田。该油田的日产量将超过200万桶石油当量，成为巴国油产量最高的资产。
目前，在Búzios有四个平台在运营，占巴国油总产量的20%以上。
第五和第六平台FPSO Almirante Barroso和AlmiranteTamandaré正在建设中，第八和第九个FPSO P-79和P-80正在承包过程中。
巴国油最近还启动了购买Búzios油田第九套FPSO装置的招标程序。

Keppel snatches contract to build FPSO for world’s largest deepwater oil field
Brazilian oil and gas giant Petrobras has signed a $2.3 billion worth contract with Keppel Shipyard to build the P-78, the seventh unit to be installed in the Búzios field, in the Santos Basin pre-salt area.
Following a confirmation by Keppel in April 2021 that it was in talks with Petrobras for a contract to build an FPSO for the Buzios field, Petrobras on Monday revealed that the contract has now been signed.
According to Petrobras’ statement on Monday, with a processing capacity of 180 thousand barrels of oil per day and 7.2 million cubic meters of gas per day, the platform is of the FPSO type, a floating unit that produces, stores, and transfers oil. It is scheduled for delivery in 2024.
In a separate statement on Monday, Keppel said the value of the contract is estimated to be around $2.3 billion.
As detailed by Petrobras, the supply of the FPSO will result from the engineering, procurement and construction contracting modality and from Petrobras’ strategy of developing new projects for its own platforms, incorporating the lessons learned from the FPSOs already installed in the pre-salt, including contracting and construction aspects.
The builder said that Keppel O&M will fabricate the topside modules weighing 43,000 metric tonnes (MT) at its shipyards in Singapore and Brazil, as well as undertake the integration and commissioning works of the FPSO.
Keppel O&M’s partner, Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (HHI), will provide the 85,000MT hull and the living quarters for 240 persons. Upon completion, the FPSO will transit to the Buzios field, where Keppel O&M will carry out the final phase of offshore commissioning works.
Under a requirement set in the public pre-qualification, the contract foresees compliance with the local content of 25 per cent, with services to be executed in Brazil through a partnership or subcontracting of national companies.
The project foresees the interconnection of 13 wells to the FPSO, 6 of them producers and 7 injectors, through a subsea infrastructure composed of rigid production and injection pipelines and flexible service pipelines.
The Búzios field, discovered in 2010, is the largest deepwater oil field in the world. The field should reach the end of the decade with daily production above 2 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, becoming the Petrobras asset with the highest production.
Currently, there are four units operating in Búzios, which account for more than 20 per cent of Petrobras’ total production.
The fifth and sixth platforms – FPSOs Almirante Barroso and Almirante Tamandaré – are under construction, and the eighth and ninth units – FPSOs P-79 and P-80 – are in the contracting process.
Petrobras has also recently kicked off a bidding process for the acquisition of a ninth FPSO unit for the Búzios field.
