Angra Dos Reis, Brazil: Floating production platform P-51 has left the BrasFELS shipyard in Angra dos Reis, Brazil, and set sail for the Ilha Grande Bay.
Ilha Grande Bay will undergo final testing and adjustments before starting operations in the Marlim Su field in the Campos Basin for Petrobras. After a 15-day testing period, P-51 will be anchored in the Marlim Su field, 150 kilometers (93 miles) offshore in 1,255 meters (4,117 feet) of water. The platform will be interconnected to 10 oil and gas producing wells and nine water injector wells and begin producing in January. The 480,000-ton platform will have a production capacity of 180,000 b/d of oil and living quarters for 200 personnel. The platform was built entirely in Brazil, with over 75 percent national content. Construction on P-51 marks the production of the first Brazilian semisubmersible hull, and the first deck-mating operation in Brazil, where the upper portion of the platform was connected to the hull. The P-51 was built and integrated by the FSTP consortium of Keppel FELS and Technip in the cities of Niteroi, Itagui and Angra dos Reis.
