據(jù)6月5日離岸能源報道，日本三井海洋開發(fā)公司（MODEC）已經(jīng)證實，一艘新的浮式生產(chǎn)儲卸船(FPSO)已經(jīng)開始生產(chǎn)，該船部署在巴西國家石油公司位于巴西海岸鹽下桑托斯盆地的巨型深水油田。

MODEC于2023年6月5日周一宣布，F(xiàn)PSO Almirante Barroso MV32已與巴西國家石油公司簽訂了21年的合同，并于2023年5月31日實現(xiàn)了第一次石油生產(chǎn)。該FPSO部署在桑托斯盆地鹽下區(qū)域布基烏斯油田進(jìn)行生產(chǎn)作業(yè)。幾天前，這家巴西國有能源巨頭宣布開始生產(chǎn)。

MODEC離岸生產(chǎn)系統(tǒng)區(qū)域總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官Soichi Ide表示，“這是MODEC與巴西國家石油公司合作的第13個項目。我們很高興也很自豪能夠支持我們的長期合作伙伴在巴西不斷增長的石油和天然氣行業(yè)開展生產(chǎn)活動”。

Almirante Barroso是日本公司交付給巴西油氣行業(yè)的第15艘FPSO/FSO船，也是鹽下地區(qū)的第8艘FPSO/FSO船。該公司負(fù)責(zé)其工程、采購、建設(shè)和施工，包括上層處理設(shè)備以及船體和海洋系統(tǒng)。SOFEC是MODEC集團(tuán)旗下公司，設(shè)計并提供了FPSO的擴(kuò)展系泊系統(tǒng)。

此外，F(xiàn)PSO Almirante Barroso MV32于2022年7月開始駛向巴西，此前該船由一艘超大型原油運輸船(VLCC)改裝而成。該船于2022年10月5日抵達(dá)Angra dos Reis港，開始在當(dāng)?shù)卦齑瑥S進(jìn)行調(diào)試。

該FPSO停泊在距離里約熱內(nèi)盧海岸約180公里處，水深約1900米，每天能夠處理15萬桶原油和600萬立方米天然氣。這是在布基烏斯油田開始運行的第五個平臺，P-74、P-75、P-76和P-77已經(jīng)在生產(chǎn)。

Ide總結(jié)道，“FPSO Almirante Barroso MV32是一個非常復(fù)雜的項目，幾乎完全在疫情高峰期運行。團(tuán)隊中來自不同國家的成員必須調(diào)整他們的工作方式，以克服前所未有的挑戰(zhàn)，安全地交付這個項目”。

MODEC cheers first oil from Brazilian FPSO

Japan’s MODEC has confirmed the start of production from a new floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, which is deployed at Petrobras’ giant deepwater oil field in the pre-salt Santos Basin off the coast of Brazil.

MODEC announced on Monday, 5 June 2023, that the FPSO Almirante Barroso MV32, deployed for production operations at the Búzios field in the pre-salt region of the Santos Basin, had started its 21-year time charter with Petrobras and achieved the first oil production on 31 May 2023. This confirmation comes days after the Brazilian state-owned energy giant announced the beginning of production.

Soichi Ide, President & CEO of MODEC Offshore Production Systems (Singapore), commented: “This is MODEC’s 13th project with Petrobras. We are happy and proud to support our long-time partner in their production activities in Brazil’s continuously growing oil and gas industry.”

The FPSO Almirante Barroso is the 15th FPSO/FSO vessel the Japanese player delivered to the Brazilian oil and gas sector and the eighth for the pre-salt region. The company was responsible for its engineering, procurement, construction, and mobilisation, including topsides processing equipment as well as hull and marine systems. SOFEC, a MODEC group company, designed and provided the spread mooring system of the FPSO.

Furthermore, the FPSO Almirante Barroso MV32 started its navigation towards Brazil in July 2022, following its conversion from a very large crude carrier (VLCC), delivered by COSCO Shipping Dalian in China. The vessel arrived on 5 October 2022 in Angra dos Reis to start commissioning in a local shipyard.

Moored some 180 kilometres off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, at a water depth of approximately 1,900 metres, the FPSO is capable of processing 150,000 barrels of crude oil per day and 6,000,000 m3 of gas per day. This is the fifth platform to start operating in the Búzios field, where the P-74, P-75, P-76, and P-77 units are already in production.

“The FPSO Almirante Barroso MV32 was a highly complex project executed almost entirely during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company’s teams in the different countries had to adapt their ways of working to overcome unprecedented challenges to deliver this project safely,” concluded Ide.
