French oil services company TechnipFMC (NYSE: $FTI) (PARIS: $FTI) today announced it has been awarded a significant subsea contract from Brazilian oil company Petrobras (NYSE: PBR) for the Marlim and Voador fields, located offshore Brazil.
TechnipFMC will supply up to eight manifolds for production and injection, utilizing the all-electric Robotic Valve Controller (RVC). The contract also includes associated tools, spares and services.
The RVC is a unique robotic technology that replaces traditional subsea hydraulics, as well as thousands of mechanical parts, while providing real-time data and analysis on system performance. This results in a manifold that is smaller, less complex and less costly with a significantly reduced carbon footprint. Moreover, the RVC’s software can be remotely upgraded and maintained subsea, increasing the overall reliability and availability of the subsea system.
