Forship Group’s participation in ROG.e 2026 marked a special moment in the company’s history. After a few years without a booth of its own, our return to the largest oil and gas event in the Americas, which welcomed 83,000 visitors and brought together more than 670 exhibitors, symbolizes a new cycle of institutional repositioning and the evolution of the Forship brand. The company has been present at the main editions of ROG since its first participation in 2002, following the strategic movements of the Brazilian O&G industry across seven editions of the event (the most recent in 2018). Returning with our own booth reinforces our identity, our maturity and our renewed commitment to innovation, technology and operational excellence. The Forship booth became a space for connection and belonging, bringing together employees, clients, partners and market representatives in an environment of exchange, relationship-building and celebration. More than simply being there, we reaffirmed our culture, our values and Forship’s role in building solutions that drive the future of the industry, such as the application of the HMSWeb platform to inspections, which we presented for the first time at this edition. This participation in ROG.e 2026 symbolizes not just a return, but a step forward: Forship continues to evolve, strengthening its brand and expanding its contribution to the oil and gas sector.

Forship Group takes part in the largest oil & gas and energy event in the Americas Forship Group took part in ROG.e 2026, returning to one of the most important oil & gas and energy industry events in the world, which welcomed 83,000 visitors from September 21 to 24 at Riocentro, in Rio de Janeiro. Forship and HMSWeb Tecnologia da Informação showcased solutions and projects that reflect their expertise and operational excellence, and welcomed clients and partners at their 50 m² booth in Pavilion 4. This was the eighth time Forship Group has been present at ROG.e, which featured more than 670 exhibitors, 100 sponsors, 57 startups and 924 technical papers presented at the congress. “We wanted to share this new cycle, marked by the consolidation of a robust portfolio of services for the O&G and Energy industry, covering the entire life cycle, from the very beginning, with commissioning engineering, in which we are an international benchmark, to asset operation and maintenance, including assets undergoing decommissioning,” said Fabio Fares, President and CEO of Forship Group. Offshore route At the event, Forship Group highlighted the expansion of its offshore operations, where it is responsible for the integrated operation and maintenance of 38 platforms undergoing decommissioning in the Sergipe-Alagoas and Ceará basins, the largest fleet ever awarded to a non-operator company for the O&M of these assets. Since 2024, the company has also been responsible for the operation and maintenance of cranes, load-handling equipment and accessories, as well as industrial cleaning, on ten offshore units in the Santos and Campos basins, including pre-salt replicant FPSOs and strategic units such as the Roncador Maintenance and Safety Unit (UMS). Onshore, it showcased its strength as the company responsible for the continuous operation of the country’s largest Natural Gas Processing Unit (NGPU), integrated with the Rota 3 gas pipeline at the Boaventura Energy Complex in Itaboraí (RJ). It also reaffirmed its long-standing leadership in commissioning engineering, supported by proprietary technologies such as HMSWeb, a commissioning engineering management platform now licensed worldwide by HMSWeb Tecnologia da Informação. “It is a digital solution widely used not only by the oil and gas industry, in both offshore and onshore projects, but also by a range of other sectors, including energy, shipbuilding, mining, and pulp and paper,” says Luciano Gaete, Executive Director of HMSWeb and IT Director of Forship Group. The booth became a meeting point for employees, clients and partners, reinforcing the company’s role as a national benchmark in O&M, engineering and critical asset management. It also reflected Forship Group’s presence in the oil and gas industry, for which ROG.e is the biggest showcase.

In-person and online activities reflect Forship Group’s commitment to the well-being of its people Yellow September highlights the importance of talking about mental health, support and suicide prevention. At Forship Group, this topic is taken seriously and aligned with the guidelines of NR-1, the Brazilian regulatory standard that identifies psychosocial risks as an essential part of occupational health and safety management. “Our current Occupational Health structure monitors employees’ health and promotes prevention initiatives, campaigns and training,” notes Jéssica Ximenes, QHSE Coordinator. “The company has been building ongoing initiatives focused on employee well-being, recognizing that healthy environments are built every day,” says the coordinator, highlighting the constant attention given to work-related psychosocial risk factors and the expansion of initiatives that are already part of the corporate routine. Risk factors For Yellow September, the company organized a talk in partnership with CVV (Centro de Valorização da Vida), Brazil’s emotional support and suicide prevention service, to raise awareness, promote prevention and encourage people to seek support. Initiatives under evaluation include mapping psychosocial risk factors, new training programs and expanded support resources. She also notes that Yellow September inspires practical day-to-day guidance: recognizing signs of stress, respecting rest periods, setting boundaries, keeping communication open and seeking support when needed. “For leaders, paying attention to signs of overload, active listening and giving feedback responsibly are essential,” adds Jéssica Ximenes. Taking care of mental health is a shared responsibility. By strengthening prevention initiatives and fostering more humane working relationships, Forship reaffirms its commitment to valuing people, a value that underpins its culture and guides its work.

We reach the midpoint of the year with the certainty that we have moved forward with purpose, unity, and excellence. Every step taken so far reflects the energy of our teams, the consistency of our culture, and the vision for the future that drives us. We celebrate winning the new contract with Petrobras, which reaffirms our credibility and our ability to deliver value with safety and quality. HMSWeb© continues to grow: more than 50 projects are now running simultaneously on the platform, demonstrating its maturity and the impact of our innovation. We also celebrate Forship’s 28th anniversary, a journey built by people who believe in what they do and who turn challenges into opportunities. This spirit is present in our advances in digitalization, efficiency, and innovation, which strengthen our competitiveness and expand our ability to deliver consistent results. We remain firmly committed to health and safety, promoting awareness and care campaigns that reinforce an essential value of our culture: protecting and respecting people. And we are proud to see growing integration among teams, projects, and units in Brazil and abroad. Every achievement has one thing in common: you. The dedication, talent, and passion of each Forship employee are what allow us to celebrate today and envision an even stronger tomorrow. Let’s continue moving forward together — with courage, innovation, and operational excellence — building the future we deserve. Fabio Fares President and CEO of Forship Group
