According to the 6th Edition of the Oil and Natural Gas Industry Yearbook in Espírito Santo, launched this Monday at the Palácio Anchieta in Vitória, offshore oil production in the state is expected to increase by 84% by 2027 compared to 2022.

In addition to Cris Samorini, other experts in the offshore oil market highlighted the high potential of Espírito Santo in the coming years.

The chief economist of Findes and executive manager of the Industry Observatory, Marília Silva, explained that starting in 2025, a trend of reversal in the decline of both oil and natural gas exploration is expected.

The Yearbook indicates that oil extraction at sea is expected to increase from the current 47.7 million barrels per year in 2022 to 87.8 million barrels per year by 2027.

In the case of gas, production is projected to rise from 1.2 billion m³ in 2022 to 2.4 billion m³ in 2027. Meanwhile, the Business Environment Manager of the Findes Industry Observatory, Gabriela Vichi, commented on Petrobras’s project in the region.

“The expectation is that the new platform will be operating in the last quarter of 2024. PRio intends to drill 4 production wells and 2 injectors, with the first oil expected in the first half of 2024,” she said.

Thus, the projections for the future of offshore oil and natural gas production in Espírito Santo demonstrate strong optimism from the regional market.
