With an eye on future opportunities in the Brazilian onshore oil and gas market, PetroReconcavo announced last Tuesday (02/28) the completion of the acquisition of Maha Energy Brasil. The transaction had been announced at the end of 2022 and has now been successfully finalized between the parties. With the purchase, the independent oil company will operate the Tiê concession (100%) and exploratory blocks in the Recôncavo Basin.

The independent oil company PetroReconcavo is eyeing the onshore potential of the Brazilian market to become even bigger in the coming years.

In December 2022, it announced the start of the acquisition process for Maha Energy Brasil, a national oil and gas operator. Now, the exploration company has announced the completion of the transaction and the transfer of operations.

The purchase of Maha Energy was a big step for PetroReconcavo in the exploration of oil and gas in the national onshore market, but it will not be the only one.

The company is mobilizing for strong investments in future campaigns, taking advantage of the high production potential of the Recôncavo Basin region.

It believes that the market for mature onshore fields will consolidate in the coming years and plans to follow this trend with planned investments in the purchase of assets from the private sector, outside of Petrobras’s divestment plan.

The president of PetroReconcavo, Marcelo Magalhães, stated last year that the company was mobilizing a team solely for prospecting opportunities in the national oil and gas market.

Thus, the acquisition of Maha Energy Brasil has consolidated as one of the independent oil company’s biggest bets for onshore exploration in Brazil. Now, PetroReconcavo will direct its investments toward becoming even bigger in the national market.
