Enauta’s FPSO Atlanta to be Operated to ABS Class

ABS Maintains FPSO Class Leadership in Brazil

(DUBAI) The FPSO Atlanta, contracted by Enauta to Yinson for conversion to service the Atlanta Field offshore Brazil, will be operated under ABS Class.

The Atlanta, which is being converted in Dubai Drydocks World, including structural upgrades, refurbishment, and enhancement of equipment, will have a production capacity of 50,000 BOPD, 12.4 MMscfd gas, and a storage capacity of 1,800,000 bbl.

Operated by Enauta, the Atlanta Field is located in the Santos Basin, block BS-4, at 1,500 m water depth with estimated reserves of 106 MMbbl. Formerly known as OSX-2, the vessel was converted in 2013 under ABS Class to operate in the Waimea field in Brazil but never commenced operations.

“This is a significant, complex asset capable of operating in ultra-deepwater offshore Brazil today. Through our focus on safety and innovation, we are able to continue demonstrating our leadership in Brazil, where more than 60 percent of all FPSOs in service are ABS classed.
