The oil and natural gas company 3R Petroleum is increasingly invested in acquiring new assets in the national market and expanding its presence in the country. Now, it announced a partnership with BTG Pactual for the issuance of debentures, aiming for a multimillion-dollar raise for the acquisition of Polo Potiguar.
This amount will join another US$ 500 million raised by the oil company in August through a financing led by Stanley Senior Funding. With US$ 1 billion in its account, 3R Petroleum will be able to acquire Petrobras’s oil platform located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte.
Acquisition of Polo Potiguar Will Be Essential for the Company’s Future Growth Plan in the National Oil Market
The financial director of 3R Petroleum, Rodrigo Pizarro, commented in a statement about some details of the agreement, reinforcing the feasibility of the commitment with BTG Pactual.
He said: “In terms of remuneration, the debentures will be monetarily updated by the variation factor of the closing exchange rate of the US dollar, and, from the disbursement, interest corresponding to the reference rate SOFR plus 7.5% per year. The other conditions of the debentures are described in the Commitment Term.”
Just in the last year, the Polo Potiguar recorded an average production total of 18.0 thousand barrels of oil per day, in addition to having 229.3 million barrels of oil equivalent in proved probable reserves (2P), of which 169.7 million barrels (or 74%) are proved reserves (1P).
