... Abstract Since the beginning of Campos Basin production in earlies 70s PETROBRAS has been prioritized flexible lines application in its offshore oil production projects. After the first fail involving flexible pipelines, related to the corrosion mechanism known as CO 2 Stress Corrosion...

... Abstract This paper presents a set of technologies and optimizations implemented in the All Electric FPSO, the largest PETROBRAS’ design, that was conceived to operate in Atapu and Sépia fields and will become into P-84 and P-85 FPSOs, respectively. This design was done to increase the Pre-Salt...

... Over the 2000s, many organizations have implemented one or more Project Management Offices (PMO) as part of forming a project management governance framework ( AUBRY et al., 2010 ). Multi-level Project Management Office (PMO) Strategy In this context, Petrobras has invested heavily...

This is one of the initiatives that constitutes Petrobras' RES20 Program, whose ambition is enabling 20 billion equivalent barrels of new reserves by the year 2030. Through...

... (Floating Production Storage and Offloading), these systems have taken advantage from several lessons learned in the previous projects installed by Petrobras in Santos Basin pre-salt areas since 2010. This knowledge, combined with advances in flexible pipe technology, use of long-term contracts and early...
