Petrobras and DOF have extended the charter contract for the PLSV Skandi Búzios, securing its operations with the Brazilian oil company until September 2026. Originally set to expire in April 2025, the agreement, which began in August 2024, now ensures the vessel’s continued role in Petrobras’ offshore projects.
• Built in 2016, the Skandi Búzios is operated by the DOF/Technip FMC joint venture and is a sister vessel to the Skandi Açu, also chartered by Petrobras.
• The vessel features a 650-ton pipe-laying tension capacity, allowing the installation of large-diameter flexible pipes in pre-salt waters up to 3,000 meters deep.
• According to WSB. One, our offshore market database, DOF currently has 23 vessels chartered by Petrobras, including AHTSs, MPSVs, and PSVs.
