USA: DORIS Engenharia Selects Intergraph’s SmartMarine Enterprise Solutions

DORIS Engenharia Selects Intergraph's SmartMarine Enterprise Solutions

DORIS Engenharia, the Brazilian offshore oil and gas subsidiary of France’s DORIS Engineering, has chosen Intergraph SmartMarine Enterprise solutions to design the topsides of eight floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) units for Petrobras.

The eight FPSOs will be used for pre-salt layer exploration. The project is considered the most important one in the Petrobras portfolio, as pre-salt layer drilling marks the beginning of a new exploratory model resistant both to corrosion and to high temperature and pressure.

DORIS will use SmartMarine Enterprise solutions for the project’s front-end engineering design (FEED), which is estimated to take one year. Petrobras will launch a new bid for detailed design, and SmartMarine Enterprise is the required product suite for all engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) companies competing for the work. For the FEED phase, DORIS is using SmartMarine 3D, SmartPlant P&ID, SmartPlant Electrical and SmartPlant Instrumentation.
