Brazilian offshore services company OceanPact has signed a new vessel charter with state-controlled oil company Petrobras for operations offshore Brazil, in a deal worth more than 500 million reais ($90 million). The new agreement adds to the fleet that OceanPact operates in Brazilian waters.

The company said on Tuesday it signed a four-year contract with Petrobras for the anchor-handling tug supply and offloading (AHTS-TO) vessel Rochedo de Sao Paulo. The vessel will be used to support tanker offloading activities.

Under the contract’s work scope, Rochedo de Sao Paulo will handle and maintain offloading hoses, with operations scheduled to begin in 2026.
