Petrobras Starts Drilling Well in the Água Marinha Block in the Campos Basin Aiming to Expand Exploration and Double Production by 2035.

According to Petronotícias, surgaslot began drilling a new exploratory well in the Campos Basin this week. The activity is taking place in the Água Marinha block, located at a depth of 2,600 meters, and marks a strategic step for the Brazilian state-owned company in expanding its operations in pre-salt areas. The drilling is being conducted by the Deepwater Aquila drill ship, operated by Transocean.

This new advancement by Petrobras aims to intensify the exploration of oil and natural gas in one of the country’s most promising regions.

The initiative is part of the company’s plans to double production in the Campos Basin by 2035, increasing from the current 500,000 to 1 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed).

Goal is to Double Production in the Campos Basin by 2035

Petrobras has ambitious plans for the Campos Basin. By 2035, the company’s goal is to double the daily production of oil and natural gas in the region.

This strategy is crucial for maintaining the company’s leadership in the energy sector and ensuring the country’s energy security.

Deepwater Aquila Drill Ship Leads Operation

The drilling of the well is being executed by the state-of-the-art Deepwater Aquila drill ship, owned by Transocean, a company specialized in offshore drilling.

With the capacity to operate in ultra-deep waters, the equipment ensures greater precision and safety for exploration operations in the pre-salt.
