PRESS RELEASE – NEW EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF E&P

The Brazilian Institute of Oil and Gas (IBP) announces that its Board of Directors approved, on Wednesday (3), the appointment of engineer Flavio Vianna to occupy the executive director position of Exploration and Production at the Institute.

Flavio Vianna will replace Antônio Guimarães, who led the E&P area since 2013 and leaves the position at a transitional moment for IBP, continuing the implementation of the new governance and organizational model approved by members in 2020.

With a 37-year career at Petrobras, Vianna began his work in the Campos Basin in 1984 and, with the opening of the sector in 1997, participated in the first public-private partnership program of the state-owned company. He also worked in the company’s Corporate and International Strategy areas.

Challenges of E&P

In the last seven years leading the E&P area, Antônio Guimarães managed significant challenges and worked to improve the regulatory environment of the sector, in order to strengthen the industry on issues such as competitiveness, legal security, and investment attractiveness. These advances converted into job generation, tax income, benefiting the entire Brazilian society.

Among the executive’s actions are the changes in local content rules, the evolution of the production sharing model with the end of the single operator, and the renewal of Repetro – which resulted in the sector’s recovery and ANP auctions.
