FPSO Brazil Congress 2026 is back on 19-22 May 2026 and will be returning to Rio de Janeiro!

The topic for this year revolves around The Brazilian FPSO Evolution: Navigating Costs, Carbon, and Growth.

View our agenda for the full conference highlights, speaker line-up and program.

Brazil is expected to achieve production of 7.7 billion barrels of crude oil in the pre-salt area in the period of 2023 – 2032, and daily production is expected to increase fourfold in the coming years. Both Oil and Gas Owners and FPSO Contractors are accelerating their expansion into pre-salt oil fields activities. This comes in addition to the 21 projects expected to take place in Brazil’s fields by 2026. At the same time, the industry continues its search for appropriate technology and tools to reduce carbon emission with the continued emphasis on greener operations to accomplish net-zero carbon emissions in the next 5 years. FPSO Brazil Congress is the focal point for industry leaders in the region to gather and explore best practices in optimizing project opportunities in this hotspot

Ahead of the FPSO Brazil Congress 2024, we have put together an essential easy-to-digest guidebook to some of the biggest FPSO contractors. Understand more about their strengths and benefits, operational track records, execution models, and get in touch with their unique insights on the potentials of the industry

Like its European counterparts, Brazil’s FPSO market has seen increased activity of late. Needless to say, contract models remain a major factor for the industry — whether a company wants to build, own, operate or transfer a vessel will affect the type of contract it uses. Here we explore ways in which the industry is approaching fast- tracking FPSO projects.

With expert insight from Felipe Baldissera Gabriel from MODEC, Filipe Costa from Yinson and Jorge Luiz Mitidieri, OCYAN, we deep dive into the key changes; the main pros and cons of certain contracting models as well as external factors.
