The FPSO is heading for the Jubarte field in the pre-salt of the Campos Basin, where it will start operating in 2025
The Maria Quitéria platform ship left China on Monday, 5/6, and will arrive at the Jubarte field in the pre-salt of the Campos Basin, off Espírito Santo coast in the second half of the year.
The unit can produce 100,000 barrels of oil and process 5 million cubic meters of gas, and production is expected to start in the first quarter of 2025.
The Maria Quitéria platform ship is an FPSO (floating production, storage, and transfer unit) with decarbonization technologies, such as the combined cycle in energy generation. This arrangement makes it possible to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 20%. Petrobras chartered the unit from Yinson, which is also responsible for its construction.
