Enauta recently informed that the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) approved the establishment of guarantees for the company to take over 100% of the Atlanta Field, located in the Santos Basin. This operation aims to double the company’s oil production.
According to Enauta, the ANP approved the corporate modality as a financial guarantee instrument for the decommissioning of the asset. In the coming days, the signing of the amendment to the concession contract will occur so that 50% of the exploration rights of the oil field can be transferred to the company. Décio Oddone, Enauta’s CEO, states that with the definitive transfer of the Atlanta Field, they will take another important step to increase the company’s cash generation. The CEO also emphasized that soon they will have all three oil wells in production, which will meet the demand for Atlanta’s oil in a favorable price environment.
As disclosed in a relevant fact on December 21, 2020, the agreement signed with Barra Energia do Brasil Petróleo e Gás provides for a transfer of US$ 43.9 million to Enauta Energia, related to the future abandonment operations of three wells and the decommissioning of the existing facilities in the Atlanta Field. The receipt of this amount will occur after the signing of the amendment to the Concession Contract.
With this, Enauta — which already holds half of the field’s production — will begin to recognize all of the results from the Atlanta Field and report total pumping of around 18,000 barrels of oil per day, a record volume for the company (added the company in a relevant fact). For 2021, the projected average production for the field remains at 14,000 barrels of oil per day, with a positive or negative variation margin of 10%.
