Blue Water Shipping handles all logistics in connection with the FPSO Cidade de Paraty project in Rio, Brazil
for the Dutch company SBM Offshore.
SBM Offshore has signed a contract with
Petrobras for a twenty year charter and
operation of an FPSO for the Tupi Nordeste
development in the pre-salt area, offshore
Brazil. The former VLCC M/T Theseus
- 265.243 dwt will be converted into a
FPSO (Floating Storage, Production and
Off-loading).
At the Keppel Shipyard in Singapore the
vessel has undergone major changes
including hull conversion, fabrication and
installation of a flare tower, helideck as
well as part of the topside modules installation. In the first half of 2012 the vessel
left Keppel Shipyard and headed for Brazil
where the final fabrication and conversion
takes place.
The project is expected to last for thirty
months and will involve several of the
Blue Water offices worldwide including Rio
de Janeiro, Houston, Singapore, Rotterdam and Esbjerg.
A project of this scale proves that Blue
Water Shipping is fully capable of handling
large and complex projects worldwide including the unique challenges in Brazil. In
connection with this project, Blue Water’s
IT department adapts and develops our
Track and Trace System, Compass, to fit
the exact needs of SBM Offshore’s project
team.
Brazil is a focus area of Blue Water Shipping and with the highly qualified and
dedicated staff in the Rio office, we are
confident that we shall see more project
awards in the near future.
