The Molly Brown (formerly known as Petrobras XXIV) is a twice-upgraded semisubmersible production unit, with existing processing trains for up to 60,000 barrels of oil per day and 36 million cubic feet of gas per day, total power output of 8,000 kW, as well as 24 slots for riser connection and accommodation for 94 men.

The unit was originally built as a drilling rig in Brownsville, Texas, and named Penrod 72. In 1987, the rig scored an industry first in the US Gulf of Mexico when Placid Oil Company converted her into a floating production unit and deployed her in the Gulf as the region's first floating production facility. She was further upgraded in 1992 for Brazil's national oil company Petrobras to work in the Albacora oilfield.
