Floatel International has secured a firm offshore Brazil contract with Brava Energia, confirming that the 2013-built semi-submersible accommodation and construction support unit Floatel Victory will deliver maintenance and safety unit (MSU) services.

The agreement runs for six months and includes options that could extend the term. The campaign is set to start in Q4 2026. Floatel Victory remains committed on its prior job until early Q3 2026 if extension options there are exercised, with planned maintenance scheduled in the gap between assignments.

The contract formalises a letter of intent that Floatel International announced on 24 October 2025, now converted into a binding award for work offshore Brazil.

For station keeping, Floatel Victory is fitted with a Kongsberg dynamic positioning system and holds DP3 class certification. The unit is arranged to accommodate 560 people in one- and two-berth cabins and features a telescopic gangway to support personnel transfers between the vessel and the host installation.

The Brazil award comes after Floatel International agreed work with Aker BP for the 2015-built Floatel Endurance, which is to provide accommodation and construction support services to the FPSO Alvheim in the Norwegian North Sea.
