Sevan Driller钻井平台获Shell租约
近日，壳牌石油公司和Seadrill公司签订租赁合同，将租用后者的Sevan Driller圆柱形半潜式钻井平台在Parque das Conchas项目中对六个水下泵送模块（Mobos）进行维修，租期60天，可续租同样的时间。
在此之前，巴油以411,000美元的日费率和Seadrill公司签订了Sevan Driller钻井平台六年的租赁合同，租期本应至2016年6月截止。然而，负债累累的巴油为了削减开支，于去年十二月份提前终止了该租约。在目前巴油大规模削减钻井船队规模的形势下，在巴西作业的钻井商不得不更多的从国际石油公司手中争取租约。
Seadrill and Anglo-Dutch supermajor agree charter contract for workover campaign at Parque das Conchas
Anglo-Dutch supermajor Shell has agreed a deal to charter the Seadrill cylindrical semi-submersible drilling rig Sevan Driller for use off Brazil, just months after its long-term contract with Petrobras was abruptly suspended.One well-informed source told Upstream that Shell will take the Sevan Driller for up to four months to carry out a workover programme at the Parque das Conchas heavy oil complex in the Campos basin.The charter agreement calls for a firm period of 60 days, renewable for two additional periods of 30 days each, in which Shell will use the semisub to repair up to six subsea boosting modules (Mobos) in Parque das Conchas to try to increase the oil productivity per well.Shell invited drilling contractors last year to submit bids for the Parque das Conchas job, requesting a rig to be available in July 2016.However, it appears that the Parque das Conchas campaign will begin a few months earlier, likely in May, after it was disclosed that Petrobras suspended last December the charter of the Sevan Driller as part of its efforts to reduce costs in response to the extremely challenging oil market.“It looks like Shell took the opportunity of the Sevan Driller being available and ready stacked to sign a charter and bring forward the programme by a couple of months,” said one source.Both Shell and Seadrill have been tight-lipped about the contract, with financial terms kept under wraps.However, Shell confirmed to Upstream it is set to use the Sevan Driller.Before its contract was suspended, the Sevan Driller was chartered to Petrobras for a six-year period, running to June 2016, for a dayrate of $411,000.It is understood that Shell will use the rig to carry out maintenance at Mobo systems in some of the four fields that comprise phases one and two at the Parque das Conchas complex, including Ostra, Abalone, Argonauta B-West and Argonauta O-North.Each Mobo system is responsible for boosting oil production and separating oil and natural gas, so that only oil passes through the electrical submersible pump located in the seabed.Meanwhile, Shell this week began production from the third phase of the Parque das Conchas deep-water development.The latest phase of the project is expected to add up to 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day at peak production from the Massa and Argonauta O-South fields.Phase three comprises five oil producing wells and two water injection wells linked to the turret-moored Espirito Santo floating production, storage and offloading vessel, lying in 1780 metres of water.Parque das Conchas is currently producing close to 50,000 bpd from all three phases, with the majority of the oil still coming from the Argonauta O-North field.Shell operates Parque das Conchas with a 50% stake and is partnered by India’s ONGC Videsh on 27% and Qatar Petroleum International on 23%.
Sete Brasil徘徊在破产边缘
3月11日，巴西钻井平台总包商Sete Brasil举行股东大会商议破产保护事宜，但该提案再次遭到了Petros基金和Previ基金的否决。Sete Brasil公司股东计划于3月28日再次举行会晤。
巴油于上月提议将Sete Brasil原先的28个钻井平台项目保留10个，租期缩减为5年，可续租5年。此外，巴油还向Sete Brasil施压，要求将平台日费率降至目前的国际市场价格。巴油这一提议动摇了Sete Brasil公司的盈利根基，使公司重组的希望变得更加渺茫。
Após a tentativa da última sexta-feira, os sócios da Sete Brasil – empresa criada para construir sondas de perfuração de petróleo para a Petrobras – tentarão, mais uma vez, no próximo dia 28, aprovar a recuperação judicial da empresa. Em assembleia geral na última sexta-feira, no Rio, os fundos de pensão Petros e Previ rejeitaram a proposta de pedir a recuperação feita por outros credores, como bancos privados. A alternativa judicial voltou à mesa após a direção da Sete rejeitar as condições propostas pela Petrobras para a contratação das sondas.Em nota, a Sete Brasil informou que os sócios presentes na assembleia agendaram um novo encontro no dia 28. Até lá, dará “prosseguimento nas tratativas com a Petrobras, na tentativa de estabelecer condições comerciais que viabilizem o plano de reestruturação da empresa”.Fontes próximas às negociações, entretanto, avaliam que há impasse nas negociações com a petroleira – sócia e cliente da Sete Brasil, com uma encomenda original de 28 sondas. Em fevereiro, a Petrobras sugeriu reduzir o contrato a dez sondas, além de rever o valor do aluguel diário e o tempo do contrato, o que restringiria a viabilidade econômica da Sete Brasil.A proposta não agradou, e a diretoria da Sete Brasil sequer participa das negociações atuais – apenas os bancos credores tocam as iniciativas, mas sem esperanças de um acordo. A expectativa é que a petroleira postergue a decisão para não assumir o ônus político do calote de R$ 14 bilhões da empresa criada em 2010 para atender à demanda de sondas de perfuração da estatal.Em janeiro, o pedido de recuperação judicial havia sido rejeitado pela Petros, fundo de pensão dos funcionários da Petrobras. Agora, na última sexta-feira, a Previ, fundo de pensão dos trabalhadores do Banco do Brasil, rejeitou a proposta A Sete deve cerca de US$ 1,2 bilhão ao banco. Apenas a Funcef, fundo de pensão da Caixa, foi favorável ao plano.Segundo fontes, o próprio BB teria assumido as negociações com a Petrobras, comandada por Aldemir Bendine, ex-presidente do banco, e Ivan Monteiro, ex-diretor financeiro. O entendimento é que as negociações podem provocar a “morte por inanição” da Sete Brasil.
Odebrecht因贪腐被判处巨额罚款
据路透社报道，巴西检察机关于3月12日指控巴西Odebrecht集团为赢得工程项目向巴油支付数十亿美元的贿赂，并要求其支付73亿雷亚尔的巨额罚款。
检察机关在一份声明中称，有确凿证据证明Odebrecht集团通过行贿非法赢得了Rnest, Rpar和Comperj炼油厂，以及Gasduc输气管线等项目。
3月8日，Odebrecht集团的总经理Marcelo Bahia Odebrecht因腐败和洗钱罪被判处19年监禁。Marcelo于去年7月被捕，随后于12月正式辞去了在Odebrecht Oil & Gas, Braskem, Odebrecht Property & Real Estate, 以及Odebrecht Environmental公司的总经理职务。
受腐败丑闻的影响，Odebrecht集团的融资渠道已经被切断，目前集团公司正在极力减轻债务负担。
Brazilian prosecutors late on Saturday accused executives from construction conglomerate Odebrecht and state-run oil company Petrobras of misconduct and demanded they pay 7.3 billion reais ($2 billion) in damages.Prosecutors accused Odebrecht of paying bribes to win multi-billion dollar contracts with Petrobras as part of a massive corruption scheme that implicated dozens of politicians and top executives, Reuters reported.Odebrecht is currently under investigation for its involvement in the graft and influence-peddling scandal at Petrobras known as “Operation Car Wash.” Family member Marcelo Bahia Odebrecht, who ran the company since 2008 until recent months, was sentenced on Tuesday to about 19 years in prison in connection with the scandal.In a written statement, the prosecutors of the task force investigating the scheme said they have evidence that Odebrecht paid bribes to win contracts at the oil refineries Getulio Vargas and Abreu e Lima as well in a Rio de Janeiro petrochemical plant and the Gasduc gas pipeline.Odebrecht’s press office did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Reuters.The scandal has undercut Odebrecht’s access to financing, and the group – which has more than a dozen business units – is currently seeking to ease a swelling debt burden.
