S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Qatar Petroleum was one of the winners of the 5th<\/sup> Production Sharing Round in the Pre-Salt, held this Friday by the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), in Rio de Janeiro. In a consortium with ExxonMobil, Qatar Petroleum acquired the block of Tit\u00e3, in the Santos basin, Brazil\u2019s southeast coast.<\/p>\n

The consortium\u2019s operator will be ExxonMobil, with a 64% share. Qatar Petroleum\u2019s share, via its subsidiary QPI Brasil, is 36%.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is Qatar Petroleum\u2019s third success in Brazil in less than a year, which expands out footprint in one of the most prospective basins in the world,\u201d said Qatar Petroleum\u2019s president, Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi (picture above)<\/em>, according to a statement by the company. \u201cThis winning bid constitutes another milestone on the road of achieving our strategy of creating a large scale, value-adding international portfolio, while pursuing Latin America as an important core area for Qatar Petroleum,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Since October 2017, Qatar Petroleum has acquired four blocks for exploration and production in three bidding rounds in Brazil, every time as part of a consortium with other companies.<\/p>\n

In this Friday\u2019s round, four blocks were offered by ANP. Besides Tit\u00e3, Saturno, Pau-Brasil and Sudoeste de Tartaruga Verde. The round raised BRL 6.82 billion (USD 1.77 billion) in signing bonuses, with Tit\u00e3 accounting for BRL 3.125 billion (USD 810 million).<\/p>\n

The Brazilian government expects to collect with these blocks, in royalties and taxes, BRL 240 billion (USD 62.35 billion) in the next 35 years.<\/p>\n

By the production-sharing regime, the Brazilian central government keeps part of the oil and natural gas production of the blocks. The consortiums offered a 170.58% premium on the minimum percentage established by the tender call. In the case of the Tit\u00e3 block, the premium was of 146.48%, which means that 23.49% of the production will be kept by the Brazilian central government.<\/p>\n
