The amount of the sale is US$ 105.6 million, of which (a) US$ 6.0 million paid on the present date; (b) US$ 9.6 million at the closing of the transaction and (c) US$ 90.0 million in contingent payments provided for in the contract, related to production levels of the asset and future oil prices. The amounts do not consider adjustments due and the closing of the transaction is subject to compliance with precedent conditions such as approval by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP).
This disclosure complies with Petrobras’ internal rules and is aligned with the provisions of the special procedure for assignment of rights on exploration, development and production of oil, natural gas and other fluid hydrocarbons, provided for in Decree 9,355/2018.
