The Director of ANP Said That Now the Country “Is Gearing Up” Economically in the Oil and Gas Sector

Décio Oddone, the supreme director of ANP, officially reiterated in the media that the federal government is elevating the oil sector in Brazil to a new level.

During lunch with executives and representatives of this sector, he gave a brief speech stating that within a maximum of 3 years, the fossil fuel industry in the country will be stabilized, according to technical projections.

He also emphasized that this is due to the auctions that will take place in 2 months regularly and that Petrobras’s divestment program has been showing satisfactory results. He also added that this is a true “metamorphosis” in the sector.

But now comes the bombshell news for oil-producing states or even all of Brazil: The government has allowed the entry of companies from the United States into Brazilian territory with full support and flexibility.

This business meeting between the oil regulatory agencies and representatives of these companies took place at Amcham Rio (American Chamber of Commerce of Rio de Janeiro)




Any Operator Can Participate

Décio mentioned in this meeting that efforts are being made to encourage the entry of investment funds from companies that will eventually operate after the auctions, regardless of whether they are medium or large sized. The solution found for these same to also operate was through a consortium. This would make the implementation of this project easier for all companies.

Results of Petrobras

On May 11 (Thursday), Petrobras announced excellent results in this 1st quarter, which gave a boost to the industry. Another request currently in process is the request for the extinction of local content in drilling units in the Libra asset, in the pre-salt exploration area in the Santos Basin. The director of ANP said that he is doing everything possible for this measure to be approved as soon as possible.
