The Project Involving Gas Bridge and Enauta for the Installation of a Natural Gas Storage Project in the Manati Field in the Camamu Basin, Located in Bahia Could Generate Dozens of New Jobs and Boost the Gas Market in Brazil

In January, Enauta announced the completion of negotiations for the sale of its 45% stake to Gas Bridge in Bahia and stated that it will retain the Manati Field in its portfolio. In this context, Gas Bridge proposed to the company a potential partnership for the installation of a project focused on natural gas storage for the Manati Field located in the Camamu Basin in Bahia. However, for this, Gas Bridge will have to complete the acquisitions of the stakes from Geopark and PetroRio, both at 10%. Enauta stated that it is interested in maximizing the use and generation of natural gas in the Field and will begin to evaluate the opportunity.

In August 2020, Enauta terminated negotiations for the sale of its 45% stake to Gas Bridge in Manati, Bahia. However, the commercialization was subject to a series of regulatory and commercial precedents that had to be met by December 31 of last year, which did not happen.

According to Enauta, with the end of the deadline, the company chose not to extend the period for meeting the precedents and to keep an important asset for cash generation, carbon footprint improvement, and revenue diversification in its portfolio.

Crisis in the Captive Natural Gas Market

Due to a renewal of natural gas supply contracts by Petrobras with the state distributors, the year is starting with a crisis in the captive natural gas market.

Injunctions in the states of Santa Catarina, Sergipe, Rio de Janeiro, Alagoas, and Ceará continue with the current contracts for varying terms between 6 and 12 months. The representative of the distributors, Abegás, stated that in some states, the companies individually determined that they should request injunctions so that the judiciary would suspend the increase until the Cade assesses the merits of the representation that the entity made against Petrobras in November 2021 for anti-competitive practices. The estimate is that the adjustment will be around 50%.

Discovered in the 2000s, Manati began production only in 2007 and was one of the largest non-associated natural gas fields in the country. It is located in the Camamu Basin, on the coast of the state of Bahia, and is a milestone in Enauta’s history, as it was discovered by the first well drilled by a consortium with its participation.

Scientists have found in China dinosaur embryos dating back 190 million years in various stages of development, and the discovery still preserves traces of extremely rare proteins in the bones, something that could change what is known about life before hatching.
