Petrobras Announces Results of ANP Bidding Round

Rio de Janeiro, October 8, 2026 – Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. (Petrobras) announces that it participated in the 4th Production Sharing Permanent Offer Cycle and the 6th Concession Permanent Offer Cycle promoted by Brazil’s National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP).
In the 4th Production Sharing Permanent Offer Cycle, the company acquired the Azurita block in the Campos Basin and the Cruzeiro do Sul block in the Santos Basin, both with a 100% participating interest.
The percentage of profit oil to be allocated to the Federal Government was the sole criterion adopted by the ANP to determine the winning bid, while the signature bonus amount had been previously established in the bidding terms.
