Currently, the three units P-15, P-12, and P-07 of Petrobras are anchored in the Campos Basin, about 120 km off the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro.

National Agency of Petroleum (ANP) is moving forward with the decommissioning plans (PDI) of Petrobras platforms that will go for international auction next month. The auction for the three state-owned shallow-water platforms is scheduled to take place on July 9.

ANP authorizes decommissioning plans for the P-15 platform, which operated in the Piraúna field in the Campos Basin.

The P-12 platform will also go to auction, which has already had its PDI approved by the ANP; and the P-7, whose decommissioning plan is still under review by the agency.

With the aim of concentrating all efforts on the pre-salt fields, Petrobras will divest its shallow-water assets and has put the three units up for sale.

The P-7 platform operated at a water depth of 210 meters in the Bicudo and Enchova Oeste fields. Meanwhile, the P-12 operated in Badejo, Linguado, and Trilha, at a water depth of 100 meters. Finally, the P-15 unit produced in Marimba and Piraúna, at a water depth of 243 meters.

Currently, the three units are anchored in the Campos Basin, about 120 km off the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Interested parties in participating in the auction will be able to make a technical visit to the platforms up to ten days before the auction date to check the general condition of the platforms.

The auction notice will be available on Petrobras’ Business Channel, click here for more information. The electronic auction will take place through the website of Auctioneer João Emílio, at 10 a.m.

Petrobras Decommissioning Plans

In addition to the P-15, P-12, and P-07 platforms, the ANP has authorized 19 decommissioning plans for Petrobras installations, which involve units such as the FPSOs Piranema Spirit, Cidade do Rio de Janeiro, Espadarte, Brasil, Marlim Sul, Cidade de Rio das Ostras, among others.

ANP published a new resolution at the beginning of this year regarding the decommissioning of oil and natural gas exploration and production facilities.

According to the ANP, the new rule will result in R$ 26 billion in investments over the next five years considering only the decommissioning.

“The single PDI will provide greater legal security and greater speed to the process, and will include environmental aspects on a case-by-case basis,” the Agency informs.

Petrobras Decommissioning Plans

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

How much does it cost to make a radier? A shallow foundation can speed up the construction and reduce stages, but poorly compacted soil, excess load, and design errors can turn the concrete slab into cracks, structural settlements, and much higher expenses later on.

Senai will pay for you to take a course: in partnership with Petrobras, the program offers 4,000 free spots in technical courses with a certificate recognized by the MEC and a monthly allowance of up to R$ 800 to train professionals for the Brazilian industry.

Brazil exports 1.5 million tons of beef to China, but the tariff-free quota covers only 1.1 million, and now the government is rushing to renegotiate the cap before the sector pays a 55% tax on nearly 400,000 tons of surplus.

Scientists discover why gold remains unrusted for thousands of years and reveal atomic reorganization that reduces reaction with oxygen by up to 1 trillion times

A gigantic piece weighing 300 tons, equivalent to two Statues of Liberty, was hoisted almost 100 meters high in the interior of Mato Grosso do Sul to complete the largest recovery boiler in the world inside the R$ 23 billion megafactory of cellulose.
