Petrobras has disclosed some significant changes to the ongoing public tender set to charter up to 12 newbuild PSVs. The opportunity was also postponed once again, now with a deadline until September 13th 2024. Amongst the changes to the tender, Petrobras opted to increase the maximum amount of awards per bidder from 4 to 6 vessels, which added 2 more batches for 8-year firm contract duration and 2 for 10-year firm contract duration.
Additionally, Petrobras created 6 entirely new batches for 12-year firm contract duration, with the same specifications and mobilization strategy as the original batches.
Considering the increase in awards per bidder and inclusion of batches for 12-year contracts, the opportunity now counts with 18 batches available for bidders to offer, rather than the original 8.
