By Raising R$ 69.96 Billion, Out of a Possible R$ 106.5 Billion, Oil from the Production Sharing Agreement Yielded Less Than Expected

Not that the auction for surplus oil from the production sharing agreement, held today (11/06) by ANP, was a failure; after all, the amount raised is a record for auctions. Petrobras and Chinese Companies Acquire Two Areas in the Mega Auction of the Pré-Sal Surpluses!
Since only two of the four areas offered were auctioned, the total reached was R$ 69.96 billion, out of the expected R$ 106.5 billion.

The shortfall from the expected amount was due to the lack of bids for the Atapu and Sépia fields, which did not receive offers in the auction. This means that the states and municipalities that counted on R$ 22 billion this year will have to settle for R$ 11.7 billion.

The Distribution of Funds

Of the R$ 69.96 billion raised, it was already agreed that Petrobras would receive R$ 34.6 billion as compensation for the revision of the contract that governs the production sharing agreement.
Thus, Petrobras will receive this amount and will complete it with R$ 63.14 billion to be paid for the Búzios and Itapu fields. CNOOC and CNODC will pay the remaining R$ 6.82 for acquiring 10% of the Búzios field.

After payment to Petrobras, 30% of what remains will be divided among states and municipalities, according to the criteria approved by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
It was also agreed with the legislature that 3% of the signing bonus raised in the auction would go to the state of Rio de Janeiro, which will receive R$ 1.1 billion for the areas contracted today.

According to the Minister of Mines and Energy, Bento Albuquerque, the unawarded areas in the mega auction of the production sharing agreement are expected to be re-bid in the first semester of 2020.

According to the government leader in the Senate, Fernando Bezerra (MDB/PE), the result should be celebrated, “The areas that were not auctioned will be put out for bidding in the first semester of next year, which means that states and municipalities will not be left without resources,” he stated.

The Distribution of Funds

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.

How much would a Toyota Hilux cost without tax in Brazil? A diesel pickup truck priced at R$ 250,000 could drop to around R$ 127,000, showing why pickup trucks have become a luxury product in the country.

Windows without a prison-like appearance gain momentum in 2026 and promise to completely transform residential facades with more natural lighting, discreet security, increased property value, and a modern look without the burden of the old iron bars that dominated Brazilian homes for decades.

The largest precious metals mine under construction in the world is situated on a layer of ore 25 times thicker than common mines in South Africa, and has just connected a third shaft that will quintuple the extraction of platinum, palladium, and gold.
