About the Ocyan & Mota-Engil Consortium

The Ocyan & Mota-Engil Consortium was created in 2023, following the award of a strategic contract by Ocyan, in partnership with the Portuguese company Mota-Engil, to execute the revitalization of Petrobras' gas network in the Campos Basin. The project marks the expansion of the companies' activities in offshore EPCI projects (engineering, procurement, fabrication, and installation of subsea equipment). Activities will be carried out on the Namorado (PNA-1) and Garoupa (PGP-1) platforms, focusing on the installation of manifolds, flexible pipelines, and other high-complexity subsea equipment. The union between Ocyan and Mota-Engil strengthens the Consortium's expertise: on one hand, Ocyan's solid experience in the Brazilian oil and gas market; on the other, Mota-Engil's recognized international presence, especially in Europe and Africa.We are looking for a Shift Supervisor / TECOP to join the project's OFFSHORE team.Work regime: 14x14 rotation offshore
