Petrobras has contracted Aker Solutions to provide maintenance and modifications services for nine platforms at oil and gas fields in the Campos basin offshore Brazil.
The three-year contract, BRL250-million-plus ($60.5-million) contract carries an option for a two-year extension.
Aker Solutions will renovate, repair, and upgrade offshore production systems for Petrobras’ Campos Basin Operational Unit (UO-BC), and will also manage the yard where replacement parts and other equipment will be fabricated.
The company will perform the work from its C.S.E. Mecânica e Instrumentação services base in Macaé, Rio de Janeiro, in which it holds a majority stake in C.S.E.
The program begins next month, with final deliveries scheduled for 2021.
