Resolution No. 815/2020 guarantees contracted companies an extension of the exploration phase by nine months, due to the high probability of impact on the execution of exploratory activities.
Resolution No. 816/2020 relaxes certain contractual obligations related to the exploratory and production phases and includes access to the ANP Exploration and Production Database (BDEP); measures regarding operational safety and the environment; natural gas reference price; and investments in Research, Development, and Innovation (R&D).
Regarding operational safety and the environment, the new regulation authorizes the extension of deadlines in the audit cycle of each facility, such as drill rigs and platforms, in addition to audits related to the Well Integrity Management System (SGIP), the Operational Safety Management System for Submarine Systems (SGSS), the Technical Regulation for Ground Pipelines (RTDT), and SGI (Integrated Integrity Management System for Land Production Facilities of Oil and Natural Gas).
Nayara Nunes, General Coordinator of Operational Safety Supervision at the Agency, states that the extension of the audit cycle is aimed at avoiding increased risks associated with boarding personnel unrelated to the units during this period and potentially preventing demobilizations of operational staff for clarifications of the necessary issues during audits.
According to the executive, the ANP’s own technical regulation provides for an extension of deadlines for audits and that self-assessment routines (not conducted by independent personnel) can occur normally.
The resolutions ensure the extension of the deadline for making investments in Research, Development, and Innovation (R&D) aimed at fulfilling obligations generated by oil companies in 2019. Investments in R&D are provided for in contracts for oil and natural gas exploration and production.
