According to Décio Oddone, ANP’s Director General, the auction was a success as 45 new contracts will be signed, “This is not insignificant for our industry,” he declared right after the auction ended.
The agency’s director also highlighted the entry of new medium and small-sized companies into the oil and gas industry, stating that the main goal of this auction is not to raise signing bonuses but to generate investments, income, and royalties.

The number of companies interested in the auction was another point that brought optimism to the ANP director, “The expressions of interest far exceeded our expectations,” he said.
“And it is something extremely symbolic at a time when we are replacing the monopoly in Brazil with an industry, as it is the first auction we have in 20 years without the presence of Petrobras and being a successful auction,” Oddone emphasized.

Renata Isfer, the Deputy Secretary of Oil, Natural Gas, and Biofuels at the Ministry of Mines and Energy, stated that: “This promises to be the great year for oil in Brazil.”
The secretary referenced the three major ANP auctions that we still have this year:

The auction for the 16th Round (scheduled for October 10) where thirty-six blocks will be offered in the maritime sedimentary basins of Pernambuco-Paraíba, Jacuípe, Camamu-Almada, Campos, and Santos.
The Excedent Bid Round (scheduled for October 28) is one of the most anticipated by the government and the market. It offers the development areas of Atapu, Búzios, ltapu, and Sépia, in the Santos Basin.

Lastly, the 6th Production Sharing Round (scheduled for November 7), which will auction blocks in the pre-salt polygon named Aram, Bumerangue, Cruzeiro do Sul, Southwest of Sagittarius, and North of Brava.
