Sept 17 (LNGJ) - Sembcorp Marine of Singapore said its wholly-owned and operated Brazilian subsidiary, Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz (EJA), has crossed a significant operational milestone with the completion of its first floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) project. The P-68, a newbuild FPSO vessel, has left the Brazilian shipyard and will be deployed to the ultra-deepwater Berbigao and Sururu fields in Brazil’s Santos Basin.
Sembcorp. said the vessel was constructed for Tupi BV, a consortium comprising Brazil’s Petrobras, France’s Total, Shell and Galp-Sinopec Brazil Services. EJA’s P-68 work scope includes fabricating six modules, pipe-racks and a flare, and integrating them on the vessel.
