Petrobras breaks monthly and quarterly records for operated oil and gas production
—
Rio de Janeiro, October 16, 2023 - Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras informs that it broke its quarterly record for operated oil and gas production in the third quarter of this year, with 3.98 MMboed (million barrels of oil equivalent per day), 7.8% above the second quarter. It also achieved a monthly record for operated production in September, with a volume of 4.1 MMboed, 6.8% higher than in August.
This result is mainly due to the ramp-up of the Almirante Barroso platform, which operates in the Búzios field, and the P-71 platform, in the Itapu field - both in the pre-salt Santos Basin - and the Anna Nery and Anita Garibaldi units, in the Marlim and Voador fields - which operate in the Campos Basin.
Another important aspect was the lower number of platform maintenance stoppages in the period. The monthly operated production record was also accompanied by the monthly record for pre-salt operated production in September, when Petrobras reached 3.43 MMboed in that layer.
The company also informs that it is revising its guidance for oil and gas production, to be released to the market on November 9, 2023, together with Petrobras' third quarter results.
Relevant facts will be disclosed to the market in due course.
