Global pump OEM Sulzer has won an order to supply multiple water injection packages to Seatrium for Petrobras’ next generation P-84 and P-85 Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels. The project was awarded to Sulzer due to its track record of providing industry-leading pumps for the most challenging offshore oil and gas operations globally. For both vessels, Sulzer has met the strict acceptance criteria and application requirements of the end user.
To support the construction of both vessels, Sulzer will deliver fully integrated pump skids designed to provide maximum efficiency in a compact footprint. Each package incorporates three BB5 9.5 MW water injection pumps with two BB1 660 kW booster pumps, as well as two BB2 850 kW seawater booster pumps – all evolutions from Sulzer’s proven hydraulic portfolio. The skids will arrive complete with tested pumps, motors, couplings and controls.
Bruno Antoniassi, Senior Manager of Sales and Application Engineering at Sulzer Brazil, said: “Sulzer is proud to again collaborate with Petrobras and Seatrium, following our successes in the P-78, P-80 and P-83 projects. This latest order demonstrates our worldwide supply chain cooperation and engineering capacity. The global integration of our technical expertise in Switzerland and Germany, with our engineering capacity here in Brazil, means we can streamline the delivery of these packages to shipyards in Brazil, China and Singapore for multiple schedules.
He Added : "Prior to deployment, we will manufacture the pumps and integrate them here in Brazil, then carry out testing at full power. Following that, we will assist in installation, commissioning, and site integration tests. Once in the field, our team is ready to provide local aftermarket engineering support for the next 30 years in operation.”

Brazil’s national oil company, Petrobras will deploy the new FPSOs in the Atapu and Sépia fields around 200 km of the coast of Rio de Janeiro. When completed by Seatrium, a leading global provider of engineering solutions to the offshore, marine and energy industries, the vessels will set new standards for efficiency and throughput. Each vessel will offer an oil production capacity of 225’000 barrels per day (bpd) and process 10 million m3 of gas every day, while featuring efficient technologies that are estimated to reduce greenhouse gas emissions intensity significantly.
Our global reach, local capabilities, strategic technical relationships and deep application understanding will ensure a state-of-the-art pump solution that meets the latest standards of both the EPC and end user.” Delivery is scheduled for early 2026, with advanced stages of testing already underway at Sulzer facilities.
