Other Projects in the Potiguar Basin
3R Petroleum plans to invest US$ 200 million over the life cycle of the fields in the Macau Cluster – a set of assets purchased from Petrobras also in the Potiguar Basin, Rio Grande do Norte.
In a live interview with epbr, CEO Ricardo Savini explained that the pandemic forced the company to postpone its investment plans for 2021, but market improvements may allow work to begin in the second half of this year.
The current plan foresees the drilling of 46 wells, 31 workover services on existing wells, and the construction of infrastructure for oil separation and processing and water injection. Savini explains that there is a 5-year window for more intensive investments in the fields.
In the first two years of operation, oil will be sold to Petrobras, under a contract signed along with the purchase of the assets. The Macau Cluster includes the fields of Aratum, Serra, Salina Cristal, Lagoa Aroeira, Porto Carão, Sanhaçu, and Macau itself.
