Búzios V (Búzios-5) Subsea Development Project is the fifth development phase of the Búzios pre-salt oil field, located in the Santos Basin offshore Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Operated by Petrobras, the project involves the development of a subsea production system connecting 15 wells to the FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading) Almirante Barroso.

FlatFish is a hybrid, fully autonomous underwater inspection drone developed by Saipem to perform autonomous inspections of subsea infrastructure. Designed to operate at depths of up to 3,000 metres, it carries out inspection activities on pipelines, subsea structures and other underwater assets, contributing to safer and more efficient offshore operations. Following the successful completion of functional tests at Saipem’s testing facility in Trieste, Italy, the project has entered its final phase, with FlatFish scheduled for deployment in Petrobras’ ultra-deepwater offshore operations in Brazil.
