Tests In The Discovery Of Guanxuma Are Being Conducted By The Norwegian Oil Company Equinor, Where The Giant Carcará Field Is Located
After The Start Of The Year, When Equinor Announced The Discovery Of Oil West Of The Carcará Field And Notified The ANP, The Company Continues To Lead The Campaign For The Development Of The Asset.
Equinor Forecasts Phase 1, With First Oil Expected In 2023 Or 2024, And Phase 2, Expected In 2026. The Good News Comes From The Positive Expectations With The Guanxuma Prospect, Which Is Being Drilled And Where High-Quality Oil Was Found, “With Reservoir Qualities Comparable To Those Of The Carcará Field”, As Reported By The Company.
According To Information Circulating In The (Eager) Market, The Asset Will Require One Of The Largest FPSOs Operating In Brazilian Waters, Capable Of Producing Up To 220,000 BOPD.
Earlier This Year, The Company Had Already Announced The Discovery, But Since 2018 It Has Been Consulting The Market About The Construction Of The Vessel.
