SUCESS STORY

Petrobras-ready telecommunications upgrade delivered on schedule.

Enabling Rig Intake. Ensuring Petrobras compliance through advanced telecom upgrades

Challenge

A leading drillship operator preparing for a Petrobras contract needed to complete mandatory telecommunications upgrades under Petrobras Annex Section N during a limited shipyard window in Las Palmas.

After years in cold stack, onboard telecom systems required full reconfiguration to meet Petrobras standards and ANATEL regulations. Any delay risked penalties or rig intake failure.
