Vessel Description

BRAVANTE II is a Brazilian-flagged offshore support vessel operated by Bravante Navegação, a company specializing in offshore logistics and support services to the oil and gas industry in Brazil. Built in 2014 at the Vard Niterói shipyard in Rio de Janeiro, the vessel was constructed to meet the growing demand for offshore supply and support services driven by deepwater pre-salt exploration activities in Brazilian waters. The vessel operates primarily out of the port of Macaé, which serves as the principal logistics hub for offshore oil and gas operations in the Campos Basin. As an azimuth stern drive vessel, it offers high maneuverability suitable for dynamic positioning operations and supply runs to offshore platforms and FPSOs.
