The Búzios field breaks a record in terms of average monthly production of 616 thousand barrels of Petroleum per day reached in June, in the Santos Basin pre-salt, is the highest monthly average volume recorded in this field since the beginning of its operation in April 2018.
According to Petrobras, the total represents an operational efficiency of 95%.
The company accounts for 91.7% of the volume produced, and the remaining 8.3% refers to partners.
“The result was achieved with the contribution of the four platforms in operation in the field: P-74, P-75, P-76 and P-77,” the Petrobras note said.
The oil company's planning includes the entry into production, in 2023, of the fifth platform in the Búzios field, which is the platform vessel Almirante Barroso, of the floating oil production, storage and transfer system type.
“The unit will have the capacity to produce up to 150,000 bpd and process up to 6 million m³ of gas. With the new system, the prospect is that the Búzios field will reach the mark of 33% of Petrobras' oil production in 2026”, concluded Petrobras.
