Petrobras has signed a letter of intent with SBM Offshore for the chartering and provision of services for the FPSO - floating production storage and offloading unit - Almirante Tamandaré, to be installed in the Búzios field, located in the Santos Basin pre-salt area.
The FPSO will be the sixth unit of the definitive system to be installed in the Búzios field and will be capable of processing 225 thousand barrels of oil and 12 million cubic meters of gas per day. The charter and service contracts will last 26 years and 3 months as of the final acceptance of the unit, scheduled for 2024.
The project foresees the interconnection of 15 wells to the FPSO, being 6 oil producers, 6 water and gas injectors, 1 gas injector and 2 convertible wells, through a subsea infrastructure composed of rigid production and injection pipelines and flexible service pipelines.
