The P-66 floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel is on its way to work on the Lula Sul field, in Brazil's Santos Basin, after being delivered by Keppel Offshore & Marine subsidiary Keppel FELS Brasil SA's BrasFELS shipyard. 

The unit is being delivered to Tupi, a consortium formed by Petrobras, Shell (25%) and Petrogal Brasil (10%). It is one of two replicant FPSOs, designed for the Santos Basin pre-salt region, the other being P-69.
