据海上工程师网2021年10月26日报道，巴西国家石油公司(巴西国油/Petrobras)正在继续其剥离非核心资产的战略，以便专注于其“世界级”的深水和超深水资产。
10月22日，巴西国油开始了机会披露阶段，涉及出售其在圣埃斯皮里图州坎波斯盆地的卡图阿（Catuá）油田的全部股份(100%)。 巴西国油拥有该油田100%的股份。
Catuá油田位于圣埃斯皮里图州海域，距离海岸大约128公里，水深1.700-1.950米。
这个深水油田于2003年被巴西国油发现，并于2006年宣布具有商业化开发的潜力。
据巴西国油称，卡图阿油田原始地质储量预计高达9.9382亿桶油当量。卡图阿油田尚未开发，但巴西国油强调，这个油田“有利地”靠近其他运营商的现有设施。
与之前提出的出售计划一样，巴西国油表示，这笔交易符合公司优化投资组合、减少债务和改善资本配置的战略，因为巴西国油日益将资源集中在深水和超深水领域的世界级资产，多年来，巴西国油在这些领域表现出了巨大的竞争优势。
