Did you know that your company can access hundreds of opportunities provided by Petrobras right now?

You can start looking at everything Petrobras is bidding right now through their online portal, called Petronect. And EIC is here to help you.

Petrobras is one of the world’s biggest oil and gas operators, with over 30 active FPSOs at the moment. The company has pledged to invest US$68bn over the next four years, with plans to install 15 new FPSOs offshore Brazil.

Registering with Petrobras

Although all suppliers are able to join the bidding process at any time, prospective bidders will be required to have the CRC certification, otherwise, they will have to submit all CRC registration documents after the bid in a short period of time.
Unfortunately, getting the CRC is not as simple as it sounds. In fact, some suppliers have spent over a year on the process as they struggled or got stuck, as they are not used to so much bureaucracy. It can be frustrating to have to start all over again by yourself.

Legal support – we de-risk the process

Other service providers charge a lot for Petrobras registration as they know the company is a highly-valued prize.
