The project involves the development of the Quiluma and Maboqueiro non-associated gas fields through two offshore platforms, pipeline connections and an onshore gas treatment plant designed to feed the Angola LNG plant in Soyo. Its objective is to enhance the value of Angola’s natural gas resources, ensure a stable gas supply to the LNG plant and strengthen the national energy value chain.

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.
