On September 6, the oil company Enauta announced that it had halted production at one of the wells in the Atlanta Field, located in the Santos Basin. According to the relevant fact disclosed by the company on Monday, the company is assessing the causes of the interruption. Preliminary investigations indicate a failure in the subsea pump system.

The company stated in a note that it plans to produce about 20,000 barrels of oil per day with the three wells operating after the stabilization period. The estimate could represent a record daily production for the company.
Additionally, activities are being carried out to improve the water treatment capacity on the FPSO Petrojarl I, thereby increasing the production of barrels of oil. The completion of the first phase is expected to result in a 35% increase in the volume of treated water and is scheduled for the end of this year. The company also stated that this month it has begun the bidding process for the necessary equipment and services to drill the fourth oil well, expanding the barrel production capacity of the Atlanta Field.
