Vessel Description

CORMORAN is a Brazilian-flagged offshore platform supply vessel (PSV) built in 2011 by Wilson Sons Estaleiros in Guarujá, Brazil. The vessel was constructed as part of a broader program to expand the domestic offshore support fleet serving Petrobras operations. Equipped with a DP2 dynamic positioning system, the vessel is capable of maintaining precise station-keeping in open sea conditions, making it well suited for supply and logistics operations supporting offshore oil and gas installations. Its diesel-electric propulsion configuration with azimuth thrusters provides enhanced maneuverability in demanding offshore environments. The vessel primarily operates in Brazilian waters, supporting exploration and production activities in key offshore basins along the Brazilian continental shelf.
