Partners for Growth
Oil & Gas Exploration, Production & Storage Platforms by Sembcorp Marine for Brazilian Oilfields
Built upon more than three decades of joint co-operation, Sembcorp Marine’s strong links with Brazil and Latin America have grown from strength to strength, generating many milestone successes along the way.
A testament of Sembcorp Marine’s close association with Brazil is the proven track record of successful offshore projects for the Latin American nation. Through its subsidiary Jurong Shipyard, the Group has been a key player in Brazil’s oil and gas sector since 1997 and has to date delivered 20 projects for Brazil’s offshore oil & gas industry.
Going forward, Sembcorp Marine with its Brazilian operations centred around the new Estaleiro Jurong Aracruz yard and well-supported by Jurong Shipyard in Singapore, is well-poised to partner Brazil in its long-term sustainable growth.
