In the recorded video by workers from the Enchova field, next to the P-65, flames and black smoke can be seen both at sea and on the platform.

According to ANP, “There was a gas leak in the flare line (flare) of the P-65, operated by Trident, and the gas contained oil”, continuing ANP explains that “The mixture of leaked gas and oil ignited due to the flare, causing the dark smoke seen in the released video. The plant was immediately shut down and depressurized, and the incident is under control. There were no fatalities or injuries in the accident.”

Sindipetro Demands Explanations About Trident Energy And The Oil And Gas Platform Incident P-65

Sindipetro-NF stated that it demanded a position from Trident regarding the incident as a representative of workers on the P-65 oil platform.

“The platform was on fire, and several liters were spilled into the sea, which also caught fire,” said the president of Sindipetro-NF, Tezeu Bezerra, who described the occurrence as a “serious accident.”

The P-65 belonged to Petrobras, which completed the sale of the asset to Trident in July 2020, along with ten fields that make up the Pampo and Enchova Polos and other platforms in the Campos Basin, as part of the state-owned oil company’s billion-dollar divestment plan.

Trident Energy, which received investments from private equity firm Warburg Pincus, focuses on the exploration of mature oil and gas assets, with operations in Latin America and Africa, according to information from the company’s website.
