Energy technology company Baker Hughes has announced a significant order from Petrobras for workover and plug and abandonment (P&A) services in pre- and post-salt fields offshore Brazil.
The multi-year project is set to begin in H1 2025. Baker Hughes’ integrated solutions portfolio will aid with the deployment of wireline, coiled tubing, cementing, tubular running, wellbore intervention, fishing, and geosciences services across all of Petrobras’ offshore fields. The agreement also includes Baker Hughes’ remedial tool, completion fluids and production chemicals.
Maria Claudia Borras, Executive Vice President, Oilfield Services & Equipment at Baker Hughes, said, “Baker Hughes brings to this important project a comprehensive technology portfolio, a deep understanding of localisation, and a rich history of working in Brazil.
“Flawlessly integrating these capabilities will be essential to the success of the project. Our expertise in integrated solutions is the foundation for efficiently taking energy forward in Brazil.”
To support the project and help advance Latin America’s energy landscape, Baker Hughes will expand its Rio de Janeiro facilities to include coiled tubing and tubular running services to contribute to the growth of the Brazilian industry.
