HOUSTON Baker Hughes says that it has won a “significant order” from Petrobras for workover and plug and abandonment (P&A) services in pre-salt and post-salt fields offshore Brazil.

The multi-year project, set to start in the first half of 2025, will be managed with Baker Hughes’ integrated solutions portfolio to optimize performance for Petrobras. 

Baker Hughes says that this integrated approach will deploy wireline, coiled tubing, cementing, tubular running, wellbore intervention, fishing, and geosciences services in all of Petrobras’ offshore fields. 

The agreement also includes the downhole services firm’s remedial tools, completion fluids and production chemicals.

To support the project, Baker Hughes says that it will expand its Macaé (Rio de Janeiro) facilities to include coiled tubing and tubular running services, contributing to the further growth of Brazilian industry and its workforce.
