The vessel Helix 2 has been contracted by Petrobras (NYSE:PBR) under a multi-year deal to perform well intervention services. Information gathered from Siem Helix 1 was integrated by Helix Energy’s team during the acceptance and testing procedure of Siem Helix 2, the sixth well intervention vessel in the company’s fleet.
