Petrobras’s Thermal Power Plants Operate with Fuel Oil and Have Potential for Conversion to Natural Gas Operation.

Petrobras announced last night (12) the teaser regarding the sale of four thermal power plants (TPPs), with three located in Camaçari-BA and powered by fuel oil, and one dual-fuel (diesel oil or natural gas) located in Canoas-RS (Canoas TPP). Petrobras initiated the sale of biodiesel factories on April 27.

“The disclosure is in accordance with the divestment guidelines of Petrobras and with the special regime for divestment of assets by federal mixed-economy companies”, informed the state-owned company via a statement.

“This operation is aligned with the optimization of the portfolio and the improvement of the company’s capital allocation, aiming to maximize value for its shareholders”, it added.

The Camaçari TPPs are assets owned by Petrobras and include the Arembepe, Bahia 1, and Muricy plants, with a total installed capacity of 329 MW.

The plants operate with fuel oil and have the potential for conversion to natural gas operation.

The Canoas TPP is an asset owned by Petrobras and has an installed capacity of 249 MW.

The plant is dual-fuel (natural gas and diesel oil), thus having potential operational gains with the expected expansion of the gas pipeline network and/or new regasification terminals.

The teaser, which contains the main information about the opportunity, as well as the eligibility criteria for selecting potential participants, is available on Petrobras’s website
