Petrobras (PBR) Invites New Bids for Its Onshore Fields
Read MoreHide Full Article
Brazil’s state-owned oil major, Petrobras (PBR - Free Report) , secured fresh bids for several onshore-producing fields in the Reconcavo and Tucano basins after a previous deal with a local player failed.
Last year, in October, it was reported that a few firms led by the Brazilian company, Aguila Energia, gave an offer of nearly $1.5 billion to Petrobras for the acquisition of its Bahia Terra cluster. However, after an unsuccessful finish to the deliberation process with Aguila, Petrobras established that it opened its doors for new offers.
Per the company, a syndicate made of Brazilian independent groups, PetroReconcavo and Eneva, presented a new offer for the Bahia Terra cluster. Petrobras also mentioned that a few other companies made bids and it will evaluate all the proposals before proceeding with formal negotiations.
Per a local report, the Brazilian firm, 3R Petroleum, was among bidders, though it denied that it informed Petrobras that it had no intentions to be part of the divestment process. The Bahia Terra cluster comprises 28 fields, along with the infrastructure containing 19 collecting stations, 12 collecting points, two oil treatment stations, six collecting and compression stations and four water injection systems. In February, the 28 fields jointly produced about 15,200 barrels of oil equivalent per day, according to data from the Brazilian market regulator, ANP.
Headquartered in Rio de Janeiro, Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. or Petrobras S.A. is the largest integrated energy firm in Brazil and one of the largest in Latin America. PBR’s activities include the exploration, exploitation and production of oil from reservoir wells, shale and other rocks as well as refining, processing, trading and transportation.
