Fugro Brasil

About

The Netherlands headquartered Fugro is among the most sophisticated energy service and equipment providers in the world, with particular strength in the offshore oil and gas field. The company has significant presence in Brazil and is the major provider of deep sea divers for the offshore market and one of the most relevant remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) providers. The company’s legal function in Brazil features outstanding lawyer Geisa Campos, who is well known for her deep knowledge of the market and its legal challenges, having gathered over almost 15 years of experience in the oil and gas sector. Campos comments that the team is ‘one of the most specialised in-house corporate legal teams in the offshore diving sector’ and can point to recent experience dealing with a ‘wide variety’ of transactions, from the implementation and development of vessel construction projects to dealing with union strikes. In addition to senior legal counsel Juliana Condack and an apprentice, Campos, as the most senior lawyer at the company in her role of legal manager, has been praised for dealing with the Brazilian authorities and Fugro’s key client Petrobras, devising creative solutions to overcome the hurdles of bureaucracy and providing top-quality legal advice to executives in Brazil and abroad. Indicative of the outstanding nature of the team, Fugro Brasil’s country manager for the marine business Andy Seymour comments: ‘[Campos] and the legal team bring a great deal to our organisation; they are very active business partners and have developed the trust and confidence of all the management team with their pragmatic and highly enthusiastic style in bringing key legal issues to the table, whilst at the same time taking care of the minutiae of the details that would otherwise burden us unnecessarily’.
