The Constellation Rig Hired by the Company to Operate in the Amazon Basin

The Constellation rig hired for Eneva’s campaign, expected to last up to 290 days, is the QG VIII, capable of drilling wells up to 4,500 meters deep. The rig is equipped with a complete VFD control system and has 1600 HP of lifting power, which increases operational efficiency.

The QG VIII has previously operated for Eneva in the same field, having successfully drilled three wells in 2019. The current contract demonstrates the continuity of a successful partnership in the region. Constellation currently has nine onshore drilling rigs and eight offshore rigs.

Other Details of the Rig: The QG-VIII is a helicopter-transportable rig, built in China in 2010. The rig that will operate in the Amazon Basin has a drilling depth capacity of up to 14,800 feet and is equipped with modern technology, including a complete VFD control system and 1600 drawworks HP.

Petrobras announced in a relevant fact that it received binding proposals and initiated the negotiation phase with Brazil’s energy leader, Eneva, for the sale of its entire stake in a set of seven onshore oil fields, called Polo Urucu, located in the Solimões Basin in the state of Amazonas.

According to Petrobras’ report, “the signing of the sale contracts is subject to the success of negotiations, which involve commercial and contractual aspects of the transaction to be approved by the decision-making bodies of both parties.”

In December of last year, Petrobras stated that the values offered for the onshore oil fields in the Amazon Basin were around US$ 1 billion and US$ 600 million. “Petrobras also informs that, when analyzing the offers from 3R Petroleum and Eneva, it takes into account all value components and other conditions reflected in the proposals, including firm payments, contingent payments, and other relevant contractual conditions, so that the amounts disclosed in the media do not provide a sufficient basis to compare the received offers,” said the state company.

Eneva Also Discovers Field with Great Potential in the Parnaíba Basin

Eneva, a company national leader in energy generation and natural gas production and exploration, recently announced the Commerciality Declaration of the Fortuna accumulation, a new discovery of great potential made in Block PN-T-102A, in the Parnaíba Basin (MA). This discovery reinforces the company’s position as the largest private natural gas operator in Brazil.

Eneva estimates that the initial average volume is 6.78 billion cubic meters of natural gas. This is the tenth field to be declared commercial by the company in the Parnaíba Basin (MA).
