Papa Terra cluster
Production at the Papa Terra cluster decreased 11% from March to April 2024 as a result of ongoing intervention in the production line of the PPT-12 well. The workover campaign to change the ESP pumps (Electrical Submersible Pump) remains in line with the established work schedule, with intervention in the PPT-17, PPT-37 and PPT-50 wells, with a return to the asset's production grid expected in 2Q 2024.
