The technology has passed its first phase of qualification, with 84 nodes placed on the seafloor at a depth of 2,000 m to acquire 4D seismic data in the pre-salt Santos Basin.
Assets consolidated into the Searah JV include Eni-operated deepwater gas-condensate developments in the Kutei Basin, offshore East Kalimantan, Indonesia.
Five agreements target more than 11 Tcf of offshore gas and include flare-reduction technology.

Once labeled “undrillable,” Brazil’s heavy-oil Atlanta field in the Santos Basin faced technical, financial, and logistical challenges. But through a phased approach, clever reuse of assets, and disciplined project execution, Brava Energia transformed a risky deepwater asset into a producing field with 172 million BOE in 2P reserves.
