Petrobras Advances Naru Drilling in the Campos Basin to This Month
Petrobras has advanced the drilling of the first oil well in block C-M-657, in the Campos Basin, to this month. The campaign will be carried out at the Naru prospect.
The block was auctioned in the 15th round by Petrobras, in partnership with ExxonMobil and Equinor.
The drillship West Tellus, operated by Seadrill, was in Macaé, near Ilha de Santana, and moved to the site yesterday (21). The unit underwent inspection and maintenance of SPS (special periodic survey), thus allowing the drilling campaign to be advanced.
The drilling of the Naru well may exceed an average of 60 to 90 days. If Petrobras decides to perform a formation test in the area, the campaign may extend by another 30 days, meaning 90 days beyond the timeline set by the company.
