en.Wedoany.com Reported - OceanPact has signed a contract worth R$443.7 million with Petrobras to provide flexible pipeline removal and recovery services for the decommissioning of offshore production facilities. The work will focus on the risers of the P-18 platform in the Marlim field, located in the Campos Basin.

The scope of the contract includes the pulling and recovery of flexible pipelines and umbilical cables, involving underwater inspection, cutting, disconnection, and subsea intervention activities. The operations will be supported by a multi-purpose support vessel (MPSV), remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs), large cranes, and systems for pipeline handling, recovery, and storage.

The project will be executed collaboratively by multiple departments within OceanPact. The Subsea Engineering department is responsible for technical studies and operational planning; the Subsea and Decommissioning department handles ROV operations, specialized tools, inspection, and recovery systems; the Shipping department provides project-specific vessels; and EnvironPact oversees environmental studies, risk management, and Safety, Environment, and Health (SMS) guidelines.

Erik Cunha, OceanPact's Commercial and Marketing Director and head of decommissioning operations, stated that the company, based on an integrated operating model, has achieved efficiency and enhanced safety across all project phases. This model extends from concept to final disposal, including dismantling, recycling, and circular economy initiatives where applicable.

In September last year, OceanPact announced an agreement with Trident Energy worth over R$1 billion to provide decommissioning services under the EPRD model (Engineering, Preparation, Recovery, and Final Disposal) and subsea infrastructure revitalization in the Campos Basin.
