ABS Develops Practical Guidance for Brazil FPSO Operators

ABS has developed detailed practical guidance to assist offshore operators navigating Brazil’s unique regulatory environment. “Practical Considerations for Regulatory Compliance in Brazil” is designed to help floating production installations operating in Brazilian Jurisdictional Waters comply with a series of requirements that are specific and set forth by multiple local agencies. “Practical Considerations for Regulatory Compliance in Brazil” will be made available to support ABS FPSO clients from the early stages of design. The ABS BRZ and BRZ+ notations provide shipyards, construction yards, designers, owners and operators with a design and construction-focused approach to help achieve compliance with domestic regulations for FPSOs and FPUs operating in Brazilian Jurisdictional Waters.
