“This is an amazing opportunity for Oceaneering to expand its capabilities in Brazil with BOP anchoring services.”

Oceaneering will provide eight locally manufactured suction piles and ten wellhead load relief tensioners as part of the contract.

It will also provide one monitoring system for integration on the BOP and a suction pile pump for suction piles.

According to Oceaneering, an anchor handling tug supply vessel will launch and install the tensioners and suction piles.

In May, Oceaneering International completed an integrated rig services campaign offshore South America using its remotely operated survey (ROS) group.

In February, Oceaneering secured a contract from units of BP to provide comprehensive riserless light well intervention (RLWI) services offshore Angola.
