March 26 (Reuters) - Brazil's offshore supplier Ocyan is set to be sold and U.S. fund EIG Global Energy Partners is the strongest candidate for the acquisition, according to a report by O Globo newspaper on Sunday.
The news was published in the column of journalist Lauro Jardim without further details.
EIG and Ocyan, which was known as Odebrecht Oil & Gas until 2018, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. (Reporting by Marcela Ayres in Brasilia Editing by Nick Zieminski)
