Petrobras awarded Intermoor a three-year contract earlier this month for services offshore Brazil, following a memorandum of understanding signed by the two companies at the Offshore Technology Conference this past May.

Intermoor will provide quality assurance and digital traceability of mooring components, including anchors, chains, wire and associated accessories.

The contract scope includes radio frequency identification (RFID) tag installation; dimensional and visual inspection of mooring equipment; triage of returned components; and deployment of 3D scanning and photogrammetry technologies. 

Intermoor will conduct activities on Petrobras’ facilities in Rio de Janeiro and Macaé, with the potential to expand the services to other sites throughout Brazil.

The company has five offices in the country providing engineering, survey and mooring support, including quayside facilities at Porto do Açu.
