In addition to this amount, Petrobras is also expected to receive up to US$ 42.5 million in contingent payments, dependent on the successive quotes of Brent as well as the development of the assets. The total value of the operation is US$ 55 million.
According to Petrobras, the operation with 3R Petroleum is aligned with the strategy of portfolio management and also with the improvement of Petrobras’s capital allocation, aiming for value maximization and greater returns to society.
“Petrobras continues to concentrate its resources in deep and ultra-deep water assets, where it has demonstrated a significant competitive advantage over the years,” the oil company states.
3R Petroleum confirmed the completion of the operation with Petrobras in a relevant fact sent to the Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM). According to the information provided, the asset’s platform will now be named 3R – 1, marking the beginning of 3R Petroleum’s offshore gas operations.
“The Peroá Hub represents a significant increase in 3R’s gas production, strengthening the company’s position as an independent player in the industry, with a diversified portfolio in oil and gas production and national representativity by taking on operations in another producing state,” the oil company states in the document sent.
