In November 2018, Petrobras Announced the Sale Agreement for the Three Fields, for US$ 370 Million (R$ 1.4 Billion), with 20% (US$ 74 Million) Paid at the Time.

On this Thursday, September 12, the National Agency of Petroleum (ANP) Approved the Sale of the Carapeba, Pargo, and Vermelho Fields, in the Campos Basin, from Petrobras to Perenco. In July of this Year, Perenco Announced Its Plans for the Revitalization of at Least 50 Wells in the Campos Basin

The Deal between Petrobras and Perenco Signed in November of Last Year Was Closed at a Value of US$ 370 Million, with 20% (US$ 74 Million) Paid at the Time. The Remaining Amount Will Be Paid Upon Closing the Transaction, Considering the Necessary Adjustments.

The Companies Will Have to Present to the ANP a Transition Plan for the Operations. Carapeba, Pargo, and Vermelho Make Up the Northeast Pole in Shallow Waters, Off the Coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro.

Of More Than 150 Production Wells Already Drilled in the Three Fields, Only 16 Were Producing in April 2019. The Number of Active Wells Has Been Declining Since the End of the 1990s, But It Dropped Drastically from 2016 Onwards.
