Brazil: TotalEnergies Increases its Interest in Lapa
TotalEnergies EP Brasil has signed an agreement with Shell Brasil, aiming to:
* increase its interest in the operated Lapa offshore field to 48% by acquiring
an additional 3% stake from Shell
* divest its 20% stake in Gato do Mato
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) announces the signature of an
agreement with Shell Brasil Petróleo Ltda to exchange its 20% non-operated
interest in the Gato do Mato project for an additional 3% interest in Lapa, a
producing offshore oil field. Upon closing, TotalEnergies will increase its
stake in Lapa to 48% (Operator), alongside Shell (27%) and Repsol Sinopec
(25%).
Located in the Santos Basin, 270 kilometers off the coast of Brazil, Lapa is a
deep-offshore field operated by TotalEnergies. The Lapa South-West tie-back
development, approved in 2023, will increase production by 25,000 barrels per
day upon start-up by year-end, bringing total output of the field to 60,000
barrels per day.
“This transaction is aligned with our strategy to focus on low-cost,
low-emission projects, such as Atapu 2 and Sepia 2 in Brazil, sanctioned in
2024. In addition, it further strengthens our operated position in the Lapa
field, in the pre-salt Santos Basin,” said Javier Rielo, Senior Vice
President Americas, Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies.
This agreement is subject to customary conditions precedent, notably
regulatory approvals.
