  • Seadrill’s First Drillship in Brazil Marks Historic Return After Years Abroad

Today marks a significant milestone for Seadrill as its first drillship to operate in Brazil returns to local waters, following a long period stationed overseas. The vessel’s journey back was a challenging yet triumphant one, traversing from Singapore to Cape Town, and finally arriving in Brazil. This return is not just a geographical transition, but a testament to Seadrill’s enduring presence and commitment to the Brazilian offshore sector.

The drillship, after years of successful operations in international waters, is now set to prepare for its next assignment under a new contract in Brazil. With extensive planning and coordination, Seadrill’s team ensured the vessel’s safe and efficient navigation through multiple ports. The focus will now shift to final preparations in Brazilian waters, where the drillship will undergo necessary upgrades and inspections to ensure it meets the high standards required for upcoming projects.

Seadrill’s decision to bring the drillship back to Brazil signals a strategic move to strengthen its operations in the region, positioning the company to take advantage of emerging opportunities in the local offshore market. The vessel’s return stands as a reminder of Seadrill’s capability to manage complex logistical challenges and its dedication to maintaining a robust presence in key global markets.
