Petrobras Upgrades Offshore Hydrocarbon Platforms in Brazil
State-owned Petrobras has put into operation two new production platforms for offshore fields in Brazil. These facilities will not only help increase hydrocarbon production, but also reduce the burden on the environment, the company reports.
One of the installations is called Anita Garibaldi, the other is Anna Nery. Both platforms will produce hydrocarbons in the area of the Campos basin. Their total production capacity is about 150,000 barrels. n. e., they are also designed for processing up to 11 million cubic meters. m. of gas per day.
The two new Petrobras assets are part of a program to maintain production at the mature fields of Campos, which has been under development for over 40 years. At the same time, Anita Garibaldi and Anna Nery, which are modern technologies for offshore production, will replace 9 outdated platforms on the Brazilian shelf.
In this way, Petrobras hopes to reduce its impact on the environment, primarily by reducing CO2 emissions.
