April 21 (offshore-energy.biz) Oceaneering has performed the first piloting operation of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) on a drilling rig offshore Brazil from its onshore remote operations center (OROC), for Brazilian oil & gas giant Petrobras.
The company’s Subsea Robotics segment and Brazilian subsidiary Marine Production Systems do Brasil LTDA (MPS) piloted an ROV located on a drilling rig from the OROC in Macaé in support of Petrobras’ offshore activities.
An Oceaneering pilot remotely controlled the ROV from the Macaé base while it performed live field activities onboard the rig.
Following the opening of the Macaé OROC, Oceaneering in February 2024 performed remote ROV operations for Petrobras by controlling an ROV operating from a vessel offshore Brazil.
