With the Completion of Long-Term Testing at Mero by Petrobras and Partners, Everything Indicates That Job Openings Will Soon Arise

The Libra field achieves an important breakthrough, the consortium exploring the area has completed the long-term test at the Mero field, which is located within the block. The start of these tests was in November 2017, using the FPSO Pioneiro de Libra. During this period, the production well related to the platform reached a production of 58,000 barrels of oil (BOED).

According to Petrobras, the operator of the Libra field, the activity was defined as a major result in ultra-deep waters.

Also according to the state-owned company, the technological effects achieved during the TLD will enable the accelerated deployment of up to 4 definitive production systems in Libra over the next few years. Each will have the capacity to produce up to 180,000 barrels of oil per day.

The Early Production Systems (SPAs) arising from other wells in Mero will be operated by the FPSO Pioneiro de Libra. The current gas injector well will be replaced by another positioned closer to the production well in the next stage. At the end of this phase, the vessel will be unmoored and relocated to a new location in Mero, continuing the SPA program.

The Pioneiro de Libra vessel has the capacity to process up to 50,000 barrels of oil daily and 4 million cubic meters of associated gas. This consortium is led by Petrobras, with a 40% stake and partnership with Shell, which holds 20%, Total also holds 20%, and the Chinese companies CNPC and CNOOC Limited hold 10% each. The state-owned Pré-Sal Petróleo (PPSA), a company with a modern vision and a team of technical excellence and collaborative attitude, exercises the role of contract manager in the consortium.
