The semisubs are
a part of a lot of 21 rigs that Petrobras had previously contracted Sete Brasil
to
build in an agreement signed 9 February. Delivery of the semisubs is expected in 2016.
The rigs will be
built at the Brasfels Shipyard in Angra dos Reis and will contain local
content of between 55% and 65%, Petrobras said in a statement late on Friday.
The rigs will
carry out well-drilling activities in the pre-salt layer of Santos basin and
will be capable of operating at a water depth of 3000 metres, with the capacity
to drill wells of up to 10,000 metres.
After construction,
the rigs will be chartered to Petrobras for 15 years. Three of the rigs will be
operated by Petroserv, two by QGOG and the other by
Odebrecht O&G.
