3R Petroleum Offshore has onshore, near-shore and offshore Brazilian assets. The company's offshore Polo Peroá asset is located in the Espírito Santo Basin.
The staggered payments under the transaction could total more than $56 million, depending on future Brent prices and subsequent field development.
Petrobras sold its 100% ownership of the shallow-water gas fields Peroá and Cangoá, which have delivered on average 572,000 cu. m per day of non-associated gas so far this year. It also offloaded its 100% interest in the deepwater BM-ES-21 concession, containing the Malombe discovery.
Collectively, these are known as the Peroá Cluster.
3R Petroleum Offshore (ex-OP Energia) is focused on the redevelopment of mature and producing offshore fields.
