In another deal, *Offshore Energy* reports that Intermoor, the Moorings and Anchors business line of Acteon Group, has secured a three-year contract with Brazil's state-owned oil company Petrobras. The contract, valued in the multi-million-dollar range, will see Intermoor collaborate with two other Acteon firms - MENCK and Claxton - to provide services such as mooring system engineering, installation, and decommissioning. Meanwhile, *PR Newswire* reports that the Watermill Group, a private investment firm, has completed the sale of Cooper Turner Beck (CTB), a manufacturer of industrial components, to Waterland Private Equity.
