This amount will be added to another US$ 500 million raised by the oil company in August through financing led by Stanley Senior Funding.
With US$ 1 billion in its account, the company 3R Petroleum will be able to acquire the oil production pole from Petrobras located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte.
The acquisition of the Potiguar Pole will mark a significant investment in pursuit of the company’s growth in the national market.
According to 3R Petroleum, the debentures to be raised with BTG Pactual for the acquisition of the pole will have a maturity of 60 months from today, including pre-payment flexibility starting from the 24th month.
Acquisition of the Potiguar Pole Will Be Essential for the Company’s Future Growth Plan in the National Oil Market
The Chief Financial Officer of 3R Petroleum, Rodrigo Pizarro, commented in a statement some details about the agreement, reinforcing the viability of the commitment with BTG Pactual.
He said: “In terms of remuneration, the debentures will be monetarily adjusted by the variation factor of the closing exchange rate of the US dollar selling rate, and, from the disbursement, interest corresponding to the SOFR reference rate plus 7.5% per year. The other conditions of the debentures are described in the Commitment Agreement.”
Only in the last year, the Potiguar Pole recorded an average production total of 18,000 barrels of oil per day, as well as having 229.3 million barrels of oil equivalent in proven probable reserves (2P), of which 169.7 million barrels (or 74%) are proven reserves (1P).
Thus, this becomes an asset of extreme importance for the Brazilian fuel market, especially for the Northeast region, thereby ensuring a new perspective for growth for 3R Petroleum with its acquisition.
