Petrobras informs that it has started the opportunity disclosure stage (teaser), referring to the sale of the totality of its stake in the Uruguá and Tambaú fields, belonging to the BS-500 concession, located in the Santos Basin, in the state of Rio de Janeiro.

 

The teaser, which includes key information about the opportunity, as well as the eligibility criteria for the selection of potential participants, is available on the Petrobras´ Investor Relations website: https://www.investidorpetrobras.com.br/en/results-and-notices/teasers.

 

The main subsequent stages of the project will be reported to the market in due course.

 

This disclosure is in accordance with Petrobras' internal rules and with the provisions of the special procedure for assignment of rights to exploration, development and production of oil, natural gas and other fluid hydrocarbons, provided for in Decree 9,355/2018.

 

This transaction is in line with the company's strategy of portfolio optimization, debt reduction, and capital allocation improvement, as it increasingly concentrates its resources in world-class assets in deep and ultradeep waters, where Petrobras has shown a great competitive edge over the years.
