The Brazilian State Oil Company Petrobras May Have to Initiate a New Bidding Process for the Leasing of a Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Regasification Terminal in Bahia, Reports Kallanish Energy.

Petrobras said at the end of last week that it opened bids from three companies: bp, Compass Gas and Energy, and Golar Power, but only one commercial proposal was received, which was disqualified for the lease of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) regasification terminal.

The TR-BA leasing process consists of a terminal with a capacity of 20 million cubic meters per day (Mmcm/d) and an associated pipeline in northern Brazil.

This does not include a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU). bp requested a postponement of the opening of commercial proposals to potentially resolve “outstanding issues,” while Compass submitted a letter declining the commercial proposal.

Golar Offers R$ 130 Million for the Lease of the LNG Terminal in Bahia

Golar Power informed that it offered R$ 130 million for the lease of Petrobras’s LNG Terminal in Bahia, until December 31, 2023. The company “refuted” the state-owned company’s decision that disqualified it from the competition due to a high Integrity Risk Level (GRI).

The decision was made after the company’s licensed president in Brazil, Eduardo Antonello, became a target of the Lava Jato operation due to his role at Seadrill, a company that charters drilling rigs for Petrobras.

Petrobras has not disclosed details for a new schedule, while Golar Power stated that it would appeal the decision.

Oil at the center of global disputes and historical transformations

More than R$ 526 million generated in oil in 2025 was not enough to place Espírito Santo in the lead of innovation — and the data shows exactly where the bottleneck is.

With salaries of up to R$ 30,000 and 2,500 open positions, a shipyard in Aracruz (ES) is at the center of a billion-dollar project by Petrobras that involves platforms capable of producing 225,000 barrels per day.

Impacts of tensions in the Middle East: how the rise in oil prices is transforming infrastructure contracts in Brazil, raising prices, delaying schedules, and exposing billion-dollar fragility in the sector.
