About this event
The EIC is happy to announce the Breakfast in Rio: Business Opportunities with Hanwha Ocean.
Hanwha is a global South Korean group delivering foundational systems across a broad range of industries. Within its Energy and Maritime Solutions division, the group operates across the entire energy value chain, building integrated solutions that ensure reliable supply and meet rising demand. Through Hanwha Ocean, its shipbuilding and offshore arm, the group has been expanding its presence in Brazil's offshore energy sector, positioning itself as a full turnkey solution provider under the engineering, procurement, construction, installation and operation (EPCIO) model.
The company has made significant strides in Brazil in recent years. In September 2025, the ultra-deepwater drillship Tidal Action, owned by Hanwha Ocean and operated by Hanwha Drilling, began its maiden contract with Petrobras at the Roncador field in the Campos Basin, under a 30-month agreement worth approximately US$500m and managed by Brazilian contractor Constellation. The Tidal Action is capable of drilling in water depths of up to 3.6km. In parallel, the group is expanding its FPSO ambitions in the country, having participated in Petrobras' P-86 FPSO tender as the sole South Korean bidder, and delivered the FPSO P-79, which achieved its first oil offloading for Petrobras at the Búzios field in the Santos Basin in June 2026.
