She Has Already Requested a Review of Local Content for the Itaipu and Búzios Platforms. Petrobras Claims It Is Cheaper to Build Abroad
[supsystic-social-sharing id=’1′] Petrobras has requested the Brazilian governments to review the local content metrics for two offshore units designated for the pre-salt. If successful in her request, the construction of the hulls for these platforms will take place in Asia for the FPSOs Itapu and Búzios. The plateau was contacted directly for this conversation, and the state-owned company ended up asking for this matter not to be made public, more specifically for audiences, which could result in protests, primarily from unionists.
The request is part of the negotiation framework aimed at reassessing the onerous concession contracts that Petrobras has with the entire ministerial chain of Mining and Energy and Finance. The state-owned company claims this right to review the treaty due to the agreements made in 2010, which established that it could produce without bidding over 5 billion barrels of oil in the Pre-salt of the Santos Basin, provided that the Brazilian government retains a substantial part of what is processed on Brazilian soil.
See what the representatives of the state-owned company said: “The onerous concession contract includes provisions for the review of certain items, among them the local content indexes. Thus, this topic is among those to be negotiated by the respective negotiation commissions, already constituted by Petrobras and the government,” the state-owned company informed. In reality, it is a delicate subject; the hulls of these FPSOs that could be built in Brazil, generating jobs and income for the Brazilian people, will be built abroad if this request goes through. In fact, it is much cheaper to build overseas than on our own land, due to the high tax burdens that the government imposes on oil companies.
