Petrobras on partial devolution of area in
Libra
—
Rio de Janeiro, April 16, 2021 - Petróleo
Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras informs that the consortium of Libra, constituted by Petrobras (40%), in partnership with Shell Brasil Petróleo
Ltda. (20%), Total E&P do Brasil Ltda. (20%), CNODC Brasil Petróleo e Gás Ltda. (10%) and CNOOC Petroleum Brasil Ltda.
(10%), having Pré-Sal Petróleo S.A. (PPSA) as contract manager, notified the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and
Biofuels (ANP) of the devolution of the Southeast area of the Libra block, in the Santos Basin.
Since the beginning of the evaluation activities
of the Libra block, the Southeast area, a distinct compartment from the other ones, was identified as an area of low potential. The conclusion
of the obtained data analysis confirmed this expectation.
The devolution is in accordance with the Discovery
Evaluation Plan (PAD) of well 3-BRSA-1267-RJS, which covers the Central and Southeast areas of the Libra block, remaining after the Declaration
of Commerciality of the Northwest area of Libra that originated the current Mero field, the third largest producing field of the pre-salt.
The exploratory phase of discovery evaluation of this area will continue until March 2025.
