Back to 2006Is the Jones Act Shuttle-Vessel the critical path?

Marketing Evaluation
Conclusion in 2006
• Limits on Americans’ shipyard schedule/availability
• Restrictions on existing tankers for conversion
• Aging of the existing tanker fleet
• Lack of interest due to risks regarding re-use (no foreign Jones Act ST market)
2006 – Conclusion:the Shuttle-Vessel will be the critical path of the Project

Conclusion
Despite challenges and marketing uncertainties, delivery of the 1st Jones Act ST
was made on time, in budget, as contracted, mainly due to a strong collaboration
and commitment among Petrobras America, Petrobras Headquarters, OSG and
partner, putting this part of the project out of the critical path.
STs can be an economically feasible and flexible option for oil export in US.
Petrobras Offloading Committee, under Petrobras America’s coordination, defined a
procurement strategy that was the key of this result.
This approach starts a new oil export mode for E&P development in the US GoM.
