RIO DE JANEIRO – Petrobras has contracted Baker Hughes to supply subsea oil field equipment for the Marlim and Voador field-revitalization project in the Campos basin offshore Brazil.

Baker Hughes will provide up to five subsea production and injection manifold systems, featuring a lightweight and compact design that allows for installation from smaller vessels and integrated hydraulic connection systems and retrievable choke modules.

The manifold systems, which will be fabricated, tested and assembled in Jandira, Brazil, will include the company’s vertical mechanical clamp connection system.

In addition, Baker Hughes will deliver 32 Modpod subsea control modules powered by SemStar5 technology, and manufactured at the company’s Nailsea facility in Bristol, UK.

The modules’ field deployment history shows a mean time between failures of over 150 years, said to be10 times better than the industry average as measured by the Offshore and Onshore Reliability Data (Oreada).
