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. The shipyard's workscope for the projects includes the fabrication, integration, testing and commissioning of topside modules.
FPSO P-66 has a production capacity of 150,000 b/d and 6 MMcm of gas per day. It also has a storage capacity of 1.6 MMbo.
Including FPSO P-66, the BrasFELS shipyard has completed seven FPSO projects since 2010.
Apart from FPSO P-66, BrasFELS has two other ongoing FPSO projects, its second replicante unit, FPSO P-69, and Cidade de Campos dos Goytacazes MV29.
