New Wave of Petrobras Contracts Signals Market Revival!
The recent Petrobras bids for chartering two AHTS vessels and constructing eight LPG carriers highlight a significant uptick in market activity, signaling a potential resurgence in the sector. In addition to these opportunities, Petrobras is expected to conclude nine more tenders by the end of May, with particular hopes surrounding the bids for eight new RSVs and two AHTS-TO vessels.
This Friday (14th), Petrobras is set to announce the results of its tenders for the chartering of two OSRVs and one MPSV, the latter being a rare opportunity that has drawn considerable interest from shipowners. On Monday (17th), expectations are high for the conclusion of the SOB (flotel) charter bid, another unusual and noteworthy opportunity in the market.
Looking ahead, Petrobras/Transpetro is expected to launch additional LPG carrier opportunities, along with a new wave of OSV bids, including OSRVs, PSVs, AHTS, and RSVs. The possibility of newbuilding requests further reinforces the company’s aggressive stance in expanding its fleet and strengthening its position in the industry as well as the shipbuilding industry.
