Petrobras starts non-binding phase in Ceará Cluster
—
Rio de Janeiro, August 7, 2020 - Petróleo
Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras informs that it has started the non-binding phase, referring to the sale of its entire stake in the
Atum, Curimã, Espada and Xaréu shallow waters fields (Ceará Cluster) , located in the State of Ceará.
Potential buyers qualified for this phase
will receive instructions on the divestment process, including guidelines for the preparation and submission of non-binding proposals,
as well as access to a virtual data room containing additional information about the Cluster.
The main subsequent stages of the project
will be reported to the market in due course. This disclosure complies with the Petrobras' divestment guidelines and with the provisions
of the special procedure for assignment of rights to exploration, development and production of oil, natural gas and other fluid
hydrocarbons, provided for in Decree 9,355/2018.
This transaction is in line with the portfolio
optimization strategy and the improvement of the company’s capital allocation, increasingly concentrating its resources in
deep and ultra-deep waters, where Petrobras has demonstrated great competitive edge over the years.

Cluster
