Commercial production reached 2.361 million boed. This is a volume of 2.7% above the 2.3 million boed targeted, also within the margin of 4% plus or minus. The oil production target was also met: the result of 2.154 million barrels per day (bpd) is 2.6% above the target of 2.1 million bpd.
According to a note released by Petrobras, production in 2022 will be reinforced by two new platforms. In April, the FPSO Guanabara began operating, the first definitive unit in the Mero field. In December, the P-71 began its operations in the Itapu field in advance, as the forecast was only for this year. “Throughout 2022, the maximum oil production capacity of the P-68 platforms, in the Berbigão and Sururu fields, and the FPSO Carioca, in the Sépia field, was reached,” added Petrobras.
The company also reported that last year a record for monthly oil production was recorded in a single well: on the P-70 platform, ATP-06 reached the mark of 56,500 bpd in November. According to the company, the brand reaffirms the internationally recognized technical knowledge to operate world-class assets in deep and ultra-deep waters.
“The company also advanced with the renewal plan for the Campos Basin, with the entry into operation of 10 new production wells and four injection wells for complementary development, increasing the production potential of this basin by 94 thousand bpd”, concludes the released note. .
