The City of Macaé in Rio de Janeiro Was Chosen for the Launch of Promar – Revitalization and Incentive Program for Maritime Field Production.

The Promar initiative in Macaé was approved earlier this month in December by the National Energy Policy Council, which aims to stimulate better utilization of oil resources in mature maritime fields, with special attention to the Campos Basin. The current performance in Brazil’s pre-salt, which accounts for nearly 70% of national production, deserves due recognition. However, it is important to remember that in the recent past, production from the post-salt offshore fields, especially in the Campos Basin, was responsible for over 90% of national production, sustaining many years of technological initiatives for success in new exploratory frontiers, especially to make production in these high-productivity fields viable, classified as world-class assets.

With the launch planned for February 2021 in Macaé, RJ, Promar will begin the utilization of oil resources from maritime fields, as recently reported by the Secretary of Oil, Gas and Biofuels of the Ministry of Mines and Energy, José Mauro Ferreira.

Promar will have a similar framework to Reate (which is focused on onshore) and will aim to extend the lifespan of maritime fields with marginal post-salt costs, thereby generating jobs in the sector and expanding and maintaining the goods and services industry.

According to the government, Promar in Macaé will create conditions for the revitalization of mature maritime fields and better conditions for the economic utilization of oil and natural gas accumulations considered marginal cost, also located offshore.
