The pre-salt already accounts for more than half of national production and helped Petrobras to hit the mark of three million barrels a day. For the two auctions this week, nine areas will be offered, there are 18 qualified oil companies, according to the National Petroleum Agency (ANP).
“The interest in the pre-salt around the world is due to the quality of the assets and regulatory changes, which made the investment attractive. We will be one of the top five producers by the end of the decade. The way to a new level is open. We expect investments of BRL 1,8 trillion and between 50 and 60 new platforms”, said Décio Oddone, general director of PNA.
If all four areas are auctioned, in the mega auction scheduled for this Wednesday, November 6, it should generate the largest collection in the history of the sector worldwide, the fixed bonus payment will reach R$ 106 billion.
In the 6th Round, the expected value is R$ 7 billion, if all the blocks are sold. Of the total, Petrobras (with partners) informed that it will make offers for three areas, guaranteeing collection of R$ 1,845 billion.
The sharing regime — created because of the pre-salt discovery — determines that the oil companies share with the Union part of the oil produced after deducting the expenses with its extraction.
In the auction, a minimum level is defined to be shared with the Union, and whoever offers the highest percentage wins. In the mega auction, the minimum goes from 18,15% to 27,88%, depending on the area.
