UNDERWATER WAREHOUSING CAA

back

Signed in 2021 by the Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office (MPF) and Petrobras, the Conduct Adjustment Agreement for Subsea Storage Facilities (TAC ALSUB) will mobilize approximately R$ 20 million by 2025 to support environmental initiatives in Rio de Janeiro. As the project’s implementing agency, FUNBIO will work to fulfill the following objectives of the TAC:

– Consolidation of state and federal conservation units located in Rio de Janeiro;

– Sustainable production;

– Marine research and biodiversity conservation, with an emphasis on the “Lixo no Mar” (Trash in the Sea) program;

– Improvement of the quality of life for fishing communities in the state.

– The socioeconomic impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in selected areas will also be taken into account as the initiative progresses.

The ALSUB TAC is a compensatory measure for the period during which Petrobras used the seabed in the Campos Basin region, off the northern coast of Rio de Janeiro, to store oil production equipment.

Removal of Materials from the Campos Basin

In parallel with the allocation of TAC funds toward the aforementioned objectives, the company will remove materials stored on the seabed without proper licensing, such as flexible pipelines and anchoring system components. These materials will be reused or properly disposed of by the company, which will also be responsible for the environmental restoration of the region affected by the violation.
