Market shows signs of growth in the face of ANP Auctions. The executive director of Accenture Strategy, Daniel Rocha (specialized in energy) informs that, although the market presents a scenario with oil prices at lower values ​​than in the old days, we can have new hopes because a lot is being revised in the sector .

$1 billion in equity

Nelson Queiroz Tanure, president of Petrorio (former HRT), recalls that in 2013, his company almost succumbed and since then his efforts have been directed to mature fields (which no longer attract the attention of foreign companies). According to President Nelson, mature fields are assets that represent the company's expertise. Participations of up to US$1 billion are included in the company's plans to purchase fields that are already in the production phase.

SALE OF ASSETS

The president of Ouro Preto, Rodolfo Landim, confirms favoring companies in view of the sale of Petrobras assets. This action represents an opportunity mainly for Brazilian companies that dominate knowledge of the country's sedimentary basins. Rodolfo recalls that in 2016 the price of a barrel was less than 30 dollars and today it is around 77 dollars. Companies were favored with the improvement in oil prices, adds Rodolfo, who was an employee of the state-owned company and former executive of Eike Batista's group.

GROWTH OF OIL GROUPS

The current scenario shows the return to growth of oil groups on the Exchange. Large multinationals are more confident and returning to Brazil with strength. “For companies of our size, it is important that they (the multinationals) are here in the country, because it allows us to link up with them”, says the president of Queiroz Galvão Exploração e Produção (QGEP), Lincoln Guardado”.
