Energy technology company Baker Hughes has been awarded a significant contract award from Petrobras for integrated well construction services in the Buzios field, offshore Brazil.
The integrated services project is set to start in the first half of 2025 and will include drilling services, drill bits, wireline, cementing, wellbore clean up, fishing, remedial tools, fluids, services, and geosciences.
The company will provide these services across three rigs throughout the multi-year contract.
During the first phase of field development, Baker Hughes has played a critical role in the Buzios field, providing advanced technology and equipment.
In addition to providing drilling, completions and wireline services, the company supplied WAG manifolds (water and gas) and more than 240 kilometres of flexible pipes, including production lines, gas lift, water injection, and gas injection flexible pipes for use in 2,000-metre water depth.
Baker Hughes also supplied turbomachinery for 10 of the 11 FPSOs, including turbogenerators, motocompressors and turbocompressors plus condition monitoring, detection and fault protection on critical machines.
Baker Hughes is an energy technology company that provides solutions to energy and industrial customers worldwide.
Earlier this year, Petrobras awarded a drilling contract worth around $519 million to Valaris for the Buzios oilfield project.
