The Director of Production Development at Petrobras, João Henrique Rittershaussen, indicated that the company will also be able to anticipate the ramp-up (production evolution). In his assessment, this “is excellent news not only for Petrobras but also for the country, which will receive royalties from this production sooner”.

Positioned at a water depth of 2,010 meters, the P-71 will be the only one to produce in the Itapu field, fully operated by Petrobras under the Assignment of Rights and Production Sharing regimes. The company’s forecast is that the unit will reach its maximum production capacity next year.

The P-71 is part of Petrobras’ own platform portfolio. It is an FPSO-type platform (floating production, storage and transfer system) and has the capacity to process up to 150,000 barrels of oil and 6 million cubic meters (m³) of gas daily, in addition to storing up to 1.6 million barrels of Oil.

This is the sixth and last in the series of replicating platforms operated by Petrobras. These units have a standardized engineering design, high production capacity and advanced technologies for operating and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. One of the unit’s low-carbon technologies is the so-called FGRU system (‘Flare Gas Recovery Unit’), which contributes to greater use of the gas produced and reduced emissions, according to information from the Petrobras press office. .
