Why SBM Atlantia?

An important question engineering and project professionals ask when looking to expand into a position with another firm: “What separates SBM Atlantia from the rest of the competition?”

SBM Atlantia does not hire based on single project needs alone. Our 50 year history in the offshore business, record backlog of deepwater projects, and largest lease fleet of floating production systems worldwide ensures long term stability and exciting career growth.

As an engineer, you want to flex your professional “muscles” and handle all phases of a project, but many companies pigeon-hole you into one project phase, limiting your growth and keeping you from your full potential. Not so at SBM Atlantia. Our professionals can work on all phases of our projects so you won’t be stuck specializing in one area year after year.

The wide spectrum of industry experience SBM Atlantia has means our projects will challenge your abilities to work in shallow to ultra-deep water depths with projects that include SPM systems, FPSOs, FSOs, MOPUs, TLPs, as well as drilling and production Semi-submersibles. And SBM Atlantia’s research and development team is broadening this product line continually.
