The Fields of the Onerous Assignment Contract Currently Producing Are Búzios, Atapu, South of Tupi, and Sépia

In November, production in the Onerous Assignment fields registered an average volume of 1,003,794.40 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), surpassing the 1 million boe/d mark for the first time. This was the highest percentage of participation in national production ever recorded, accounting for 27.05% of the national total, which was 3,710,774 boe/d for the month.

The Dynamic Panel of Oil and Natural Gas Production presents consolidated monthly and annual data, allowing for the visualization of the historical evolution of production in the country and also filtering it by field, basin, installation, well, state, time period, operator, among others. It is also possible to observe the main parameters of gas movement, such as burning and injection. This information is sourced from the Monthly Production Bulletin, a document that provides declaratory data from operators, submitted by the 15th day of the following month.

What Is the Onerous Assignment

The Onerous Assignment is a direct contracting regime for specific oil areas of the Union for Petrobras. Law No. 12,276/2010 granted Petrobras the right to extract up to five billion barrels from non-conceded areas located in the Pre-salt, as detailed in the Onerous Assignment Contract, signed between the Union and Petrobras.

Considering the existence of total recoverable oil volumes exceeding this figure in four oil fields contracted under this contract (Búzios, Atapu, Itapu, and Sépia), the National Energy Policy Council (CNPE) authorized ANP to auction the excess volumes.

The First Round of Auctions for the Excess Volumes of the Onerous Assignment took place in 2019, when the rights to explore and produce from the excess oil volumes of the four areas were offered, with Búzios and Itapu being awarded.

The Second Round, where rights for Sépia and Atapu will be offered, will take place today (12/17). Petrobras expressed interest in exercising its right of preference in both areas, with a share of 30% in each.

What Is the Onerous Assignment

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

The James Webb telescope spotted a planet 700 light-years from Earth with mornings full of sand clouds and nights with clear skies, the temperature difference between the two hemispheres reaches an impressive 170 degrees.

Rice in space becomes a scientific bet for China to understand how microgravity can alter the genetics of the most important grain for Asian food security and reveal if future generations of the plant can be born, grow, and maintain their biological identity away from Earth.

How much would a Toyota Hilux cost without tax in Brazil? A diesel pickup truck priced at R$ 250,000 could drop to around R$ 127,000, showing why pickup trucks have become a luxury product in the country.

Windows without a prison-like appearance gain momentum in 2026 and promise to completely transform residential facades with more natural lighting, discreet security, increased property value, and a modern look without the burden of the old iron bars that dominated Brazilian homes for decades.

The largest precious metals mine under construction in the world is situated on a layer of ore 25 times thicker than common mines in South Africa, and has just connected a third shaft that will quintuple the extraction of platinum, palladium, and gold.
