TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) and its
co-venturers Petrobras, QatarEnergy and PETRONAS Petróleo Brasil
Ltda (PPBL) have signed on 31 May 2023 the Production Sharing
Contract (PSC) for the Agua Marinha block, which was awarded in the
Open Acreage under Production Sharing Regime -- 1(st) Cycle held by
Brazil's National Petroleum Agency (ANP) in December 2022.
Agua Marinha is a 1,300 sq.km exploration block located in the
pre-salt Campos Basin south of the Marlim Sul field and about 140
km from shore. The work program includes drilling one firm
exploration well during the exploration period.
"The signature of the PSC for Agua Marinha expands our presence
in this promising area of the pre-salt Campos Basin, alongside our
three strategic partners, and we are looking forward looking to
exploring the block and drilling the Touro prospect" said Kevin
McLachlan, Senior Vice President, Exploration of TotalEnergies.
"Offshore Brazil, with its material low-cost, low-emission
resources is a core area for the Company. This block, along with
the two South Santos basin concessions obtained in 2022, further
reinforces our exploration portfolio in this high potential
area."
TotalEnergies will participate in the block with a 30% interest,
alongside operator Petrobras (30%), QatarEnergy (20%) and PPBL
(20%).
