Seatrium is preparing the P-80 and P-82 FPSOs to sail for Brazil’s Búzios field, where the two units will provide a combined oil production capacity of 450,000 bopd.
Seatrium says P-78 started producing on 31 December 2025, marking a full EPCC FPSO scope that includes at-sea commissioning, before Final Acceptance by Petrobras.
FPSO P-79 has departed Geoje-Si for the Búzios field in the Santos Basin. Petrobras plans for the unit to arrive in February 2026 and begin production in August 2026, adding capacity to the field’s ongoing development.
During OTC Brazil 2025, Petrobras CEO Magda Chambriard announced that the company may expand its exploration program in the Foz do Amazonas Basin with up to three additional wells, contingent on early results. The statement reaffirms Petrobras’ commitment to frontier exploration and compliance with the Paris Agreement.
