Deepwater offloading solution evolves: Direct offloading concept inspired by marine life offers flexible oil transfer from ultradeepwater fields

摘要

The U.S. Energy Information Administration places Brazil's total presalt reserves at more than 50 Bboe. To support production growth in the region, Petrobras and its partners are deploying a large number of converted and newly built FPSO vessels to work in the Campos, Santos and Espirito Santo basins, where offloading technology will play an even greater role in transporting crude oil resources produced and stored on these units to the export market.
