    WSB Special Seminar reunion

    Last thursday (10), the rooftop of WSB Advisors set the stage for a truly memorable evening. Despite a cloudy day and our constant hope for no rain, we were once again blessed with clear skies as the night unfolded, creating the perfect atmosphere for our team, dear friends, and some panelists from our recent WSB Seminar to come together.

    It was a fantastic opportunity to unwind and enjoy unpretentious conversations. The presence of leaders from Bravante, Solstad, Bram / Chouest, Marinsa, WTN Lak, Café na Trilha, Corintos, BP Energy, Efen, Norsul, Raízen, Intcom, Pinheiro Almeida, Eletronuclear, Delp, UMI SAN, ECB, and others made the evening even more special.

    A heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us and helped create this unforgettable experience. Together, we continue to build a strong business community.

  • BP begins new drilling

    BP begins new drilling

    By Rafael Bortoloti

    ​Last week, BP Energy began drilling well 1-BP-12D-RJS, in the Pau Brasil block, Santos Basin pre-salt. The rig daily rate is of $410,000 under an 80-day contract, amounting to a total of $33 million and the well is in a water depth of 2. 283 meters. The vessel and the crew of Valaris´ DS-15 vessel already were on standby, only waiting for the green light from IBAMA to initiate the operations.

    Currently contracted with TotalEnergies until September, the DS-15 drillship has an unique opportunity for short-term engagements. In 2024, the vessel was temporarily released for contracts with PETRONAS and now BP. Following this assignment, it will return to Total Energies albeit at a reduced daily rate of $254,000.

    The Pau-Brasil well, acquired by BP in the 5th Sharing Round in 2018, is a joint venture with CNOOC (30%) and Ecopetrol (20%). This collaboration underscores BP’s strategic investment in the region and their commitment to unlocking the potential of Brazil’s energy resources.
