Papa Terra cluster
Production at the Papa Terra cluster decreased 11% from October to November 2023 due to interventions in operational systems and preparatory activities for the connection of a new production well. In the first days of December, a ESP-pump (Electrical Submersible Pump) of well PPT-22 was replaced. The intervention was carried out safely and without incidents in 35 days with the support of the Alpha Star rig. Well PPT-22 started production on December 3, 2023, and is currently in a stabilization period. After the completion of the work, the Alpha Star rig was relocated to the well PPT-12, where the activities of the second planned workover for Papa Terra have already begun.
Peroá cluster
Production at the Peroá cluster increased 3% from October to November 2023 as a result of the sale of the natural gas volume outlined in the take-or-pay contract, in addition to the surplus traded, aligned with the increased market demand recorded in the month of November.
Illinois Basin
Production at Illinois Basin decreased 2% from October to November 2023. In October 2023, Maha commenced a program consisting of three production wells and production battery installation. All wells have now been drilled and the work with completion of the wells is ongoing. The wells are expected to increase Maha’s current production from the Illinois Basin with a production ramp up starting at the end of the year.
