IMI: Brazil Oil and Gas Best Sales Prospects and Highlights
11/23/12
Petrobras project portfolio includes 980 projects that will require investments of USD$236.5billion between 2012 to 2016. Of these projects, approximately 833 projects valued atUSD$208.7 billion have already been approved and are being implemented. The remaining 147projects, valued at USD$28 billion are still being reviewed by Petrobras to confirm their viability.In a recent presentation, made during an oil and gas industry association event, Petrobrasstressed the need to get lower bid prices and for the stricter fulfillment of delivery requirementsin order to meet the goals and objectives of their ambitious business plan.Petrobras is reviewing all their projects in order to implement a cost reduction plan. A Petrobrasspokesperson stated that Petrobras supports local content (LC) and will increase its LCrequirements even in situations where they are not obliged to do so by contractual clauses.However, Petrobras will continue to closely monitor price levels and delivery time issuesregarding their domestic suppliers. Petrobras LC Department will prepare reports listing LCrequirements on a project-by-project basis and will also report actual fulfilled LC requirements.The spokesperson highlighted the fact that Petrobras holds the largest number of offshore oilprojects in the world and the sheer size of their ongoing and upcoming projects are attractingmany foreign equipment and service suppliers that are opening up or expanding their facilities inBrazil. It's Petrobras goal to establish long-term business relationships with its suppliers aslong as they have competitive prices and meet their delivery commitments.
As an example, Petrobras showed the table below to illustrate cases of foreign companiesexpanding their current facilities in Brazil or opening up new facilities to meet Petrobras andother oil companies LC requirements:
Products/Equipment Companys expansion plans in Brazil
Subsea pipes NKT Flexibles: new plant of flexiblelines in Brazil in 2013
Technip group: opening up a new plant
GE Wellstream: By 2013, their currentplant will be expanded by 60%.
Prysmian: plant explansion to produceflexible lines
Butting: building a new plant tomanufacture pipes
Umbilicals Duco & Nexans: discussing new plants
in Brazil
Oceaneering (MSD): current plantcapacity is expected to double in 2013
MFX: 80% plant expansion by 2013
Subsea equipment Aker: will grow their plant capacity
FMC: same as Aker, and will build anew R&D center
GE: expansion of its Jandira plant andconstruction of a new unit
Cameron: industrial expansion
Turbo machinery Rolls Royce: building a new unit inSanta Cruz (Rio) for turbo generators)
Dresser Rand: building a new unit inSanta Brbara do Oeste (for turbocompressors)
Offshore cranes MEP Pellegrini: will build a plant inBrazil in partnership with a localcompany
Drill pipes V&M do Brasil: Adapting currentfacilities to produce drill pipes
Corrosion Resistant Alloys (CRA) Pipes V&M do Brasil: is producing alloysresistant to high corrosion
Large diameter tubings/pipes Usiminas: is obtaining technicalqualification for its current facilities
Offshore steel structures Metasa (Brazilian company):announced investments to expandcurrent facilities to produce metallicoffshore structures for oil rigs
Automation Emerson: industrial expansion toassemble equipment in Brazil

In conversations with trade contacts, CS Rio learned that several of these major (multinational)original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have, in turn, been trying to attract their supply chaincompanies to establish facilities in Brazil. However, in many cases, due to the speed andnumber of oil and gas projects in Brazil, a large percentage of certain components, auxiliaryequipment, parts, and peripherals will continue to be imported in order to meet delivery timesand technological requirements.
At the same time, the following broad list of equipment and services can be considered bestsales prospects for Petrobras, given the companys high demand:
Equipment and materials required for 2012-2017 (according to Petrobras, the list belowdoes not exhaust all the equipment and materials required for this timeframe):

In view of Brazilian oil and gas policy relating to local equipment and services contentrequirements, CS Rio encourages U.S. suppliers to seek partnerships with local Braziliancompanies at their earliest convenience because as more and more international firms come toBrazil later entrants will find lesser quality partners and likely face higher market entry costs.
