Petrobras’oil and gas production dips in November

Brazil’s Petrobras said that its oil and natural gas production, including natural gas liquids (NGL), was 2.62 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed) in November, dipping 2 percent below the previous month. 

The state-owned energy giant said that 2.52 million boed were produced in Brazil and 100,000 boed were produced abroad.

Production dropped compared to October due to maintenance stoppage of FPSO Cidade de Ilhabela located in the Sapinhoá field, in the Santos Basin pre-salt, and of the platforms P-18 and P-37, located in the Marlim field, in the Campos Basin.

Of note in November is the start-up of the P-75 platform, the second unit installed in the Buzios field, in the pre-salt of the Santos Basin.
