Ambipar, SBM Offshore develop robotic solution for cargo oil tank cleaning on FPSOs
Ambipar and SBM Offshore have announced a joint initiative to develop a robotic tank cleaning solution that enhances safety and efficiency during maintenance of floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSOs). The innovative approach utilises remotely operated robots, significantly reducing health and safety risks traditionally associated with manual tank cleaning. The collaboration between environmental solutions provider Ambipar and ocean-infrastructure specialist SBM Offshore has already seen success with the technology's application on an offshore FPSO. The robotic system facilitated the removal of heavy oily sludge and the process was monitored remotely around the clock by the onboard team from a safe location. This solution not only protects workers by eliminating the need for human entry into the hazardous environment of the tanks but also minimises operational and environmental risks, SBM Offshore said. Ambipar industrial services head Rogério Calderaro said: 'This robotic solution marks a turning point for the offshore industry. By automating a traditionally hazardous process, we are not only enhancing safety but also boosting operational efficiency and reducing environmental impact. It is a clear demonstration of how innovation and responsibility can go hand in hand.' The robotic tank cleaning solution also offers reductions in both the cost and duration of the cleaning process, potentially setting a new industry standard. The initiative is in line with Ambipar and SBM Offshore's dedication to technological innovation and sustainable practices in the oil and gas sector. SBM Offshore technology, innovation and product development director Jaap-Harm Westhuis said: 'We are excited to announce this agreement with Ambipar. Together, we will be at the forefront of a new revolutionary approach to deliver cutting-edge solutions to eliminate human-related risks while delivering complex tasks such as the cleaning of oil tanks on FPSOs. 'This collaboration will enable companies to offer much safer working conditions for their crew, whilst protecting the environment.' In related news, SBM Offshore has secured a contract with BP Exploration and Production for the wet tow and installation of the Kaskida semi-submersible floating production unit in the deep-water US Gulf. The Kaskida field is situated roughly 250 miles (402.3km) south-west of New Orleans in the Keathley Canyon region and represents a significant greenfield Paleogene development.

Jim Cramer on Intuitive Surgical: 'I Like That Company So Much'
Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISRG) is one of the stocks highlighted by Jim Cramer in the lightning round. A caller asked Cramer about the stock, and he replied: 'I can't believe that ISRG is getting hit like this. I like that company so much. I'm not going to, I don't want to go out on a limb and say buy it. I would say you can buy small. It just doesn't act well enough. But boy, it's a good company.' Photo by Chris Liverani on Unsplash Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISRG) develops and markets robotic platforms like the da Vinci Surgical System for minimally invasive procedures. Responding to a caller's inquiry about the company stock during a July episode, Cramer remarked: 'You and I are in the exact same place. They were talking about the second quarter placement not being that good. I didn't see it that way… I think they've got a lot in the pipe. I'm inclined to recommend the stock. I don't see what the bears were squawking about.' While we acknowledge the potential of ISRG as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
