Brava Energia cleared to use Papa-Terra workover rig offshore Brazil
Oct. 23, 2024
Brava Energia has received authorization from Brazil’s national agency concerning activities at the offshore Papa-Terra oil field in the Campos Basin.
The company can now increase the number of people on board the tension-leg wellhead platform 3R-2 and the FPSO 3R-3, as well as using the rig installed in 3R-2, prior to resuming production in December.
Brava plans to use the rig to continue a workover of well PPT-051 to replace the submersible pumping system.
Another letter from ANP calls for scheduling of the final inspection of the FPSO Atlanta's measurement systems between Nov. 25 and 29, after which Brava will conclude its submission to ANP of the other conditions responses for the FPSO Atlanta to start operations.
In September Brazil’s environmental agency issued the operating license for the platform. In parallel, Brava will start the decommissioning process for the FPSO Petrojarl in early November.
