SINGAPORE — Yinson Production has held a naming ceremony for the FPSO Maria Quitéria at Cosco Shipping Heavy Industry (Shanghai) Shipyard in China.
The converted vessel, destined for Petrobras’ Jubarte Field in the northern Campos Basin offshore Brazil, has capacities to produce 100,000 bbl/d of oil and to store 1 MMbbl.
It is the first in Yinson’s FPSO fleet to employ heat recovery steam generation as part of its combined cycle power generation system.
Petrobras awarded the contract in late 2021, and conversion works started in January 2022. All topside modules are in place and integrated, and commissioning has started. The vessel is due to depart for Juvrate during the second quarter.
Maria Quitéria is Yinson third FPSO for the Brazilian sector following the Anna Nery, which has been operating for Petrobras since last May, and FPSO Atlanta, which recently delivered to Enauta Energia for the Atlanta oil field.
