FPSO Alexandre de Gusmão departed China for Brazil to be installed in the Mero Field, Santos Basin, for Petrobras. Production is set to start in 2025.
With a capacity of 180,000 boe/d and 12 million m³ of gas compression per day, the unit will increase Mero’s output by 31%, to a total of 770,000 boe/d.
This is the fourth FPSO delivered to Petrobras in 2024, (Maria Quitéria, Duque de Caxias, and Almirante Tamandaré preceded).
These additions help drive the OSV chartering opportunities.
