Disappointing news from the Argerich-1 exploration well offshore Argentina! The #Argerich exploration campaign hailed as a potential game-changer for #Argentina, faced a significant setback with the recent results. High hopes were pinned on this campaign due to the geologically prolific Atlantic margin region, renowned for its promising basin analog features and mirroring the immense potential seen on the African side of the Atlantic. The Argerich-1 well, a collaboration between #Equinor, state-controlled #YPF (35%), and #Shell (30%), aimed to unlock Argentina's #offshore hydrocarbon potential. This setback comes at a time when there's renewed interest in the region, with Argentina and #Uruguay looking to replicate the hydrocarbon successes seen in #Namibia. The Argerich-1 well could have been a positive starting point, paving the way for future offshore exploration. Despite this disappointment, the interest in Argentina’s offshore prospects remains strong. It will be fascinating to see how the offshore exploration scene in Argentina unfolds, as the industry adapts and continues to seek out new opportunities in the region. Stay tuned for more developments in this evolving landscape!

Barracuda-Caratinga FPSO tender postponed Petrobras has once again postponed the Barracuda-Caratinga #tender proposal deadline. While the market often interprets this as a reflection of Petrobras's diminished ability to attract players, especially in light of the single offer result for SEAP I and II, the reality is different. The number of FPSO operators has actually increased in recent years with the entry of BW Offshore, Yinson, and MISC Group. On the local shipyard front, Seatrium has also strengthened its position, committing to the utilization of their combined Angra dos Reis and Aracruz facilities. The complexity of projects has significantly increased, with advancements in technology such as electrification and Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) gaining prominence. Petrobras's tenders are highly prescriptive, and their demanding requirements as charterers lead to naturally longer and more detailed tender processes. We anticipate that #Petrobras will address the current FPSO tenders with renewed focus and soon resolve the SEAP units, continuing its growth trajectory in the segment.

CHANGES ON NEWBUILDS TENDER This week Petrobras has disclosed some significant changes to the ongoing public tender set to charter up to 12 newbuild PSVs. The opportunity was also postponed once again, now with a deadline until September 13th 2024.
