Natural Gas Processing Offer: understand how we are doing it
We have implemented a set of initiatives to facilitate interested agents' access to natural gas processing activities.
Novo momento
We are living a new moment
To contribute to the development of all links of the Brazilian natural gas chain, we are now playing a new role as a gas processor for third parties. This represents an unprecedented type of business for the company, in addition to being crucial for the effective opening of the market.

Modelo de negócio
Business Model and the Processing Contract
The business model for third-party access to natural gas processing infrastructure is carried out through on-demand processing operations. This means the shipment of the material for processing and the delivery of the processed product, maintaining the ownership of natural gas and its liquid derivatives throughout the entire process.
The contracting of these operations is formalized through a natural gas processing contract that may be executed in two modalities: the firm modality (in available capacity); or the interruptible modality (in idle capacity), at the processing plant of interest.
The processing costs are freely negotiated between Petrobras and the potential contractor, and are established according to the quality of the natural gas to be processed and the contract curve.
The business model for contracting Petrobras' natural gas processing capacity was based on the principles of the “Best Practices Booklet – Guidelines for Accessing the Natural Gas Processing Unit – NGPU”.
Oferta e contratação
Processing Capacity Offer and Contracting
We offer processing capacity to potential interested parties in two stages:
1st Stage: Offer of capacity to agents who have rights over the production of natural gas from production fields, in order to guarantee the continuity of oil and gas production in the country. This stage is already underway.
2nd Stage: Offer of available processing capacity (after 1st-stage negotiations) to other interested agents. This offer will happen annually.
In order to guarantee equal and non-discriminatory treatment, all agents shall go through the following phases to contract processing capacity:
- Agents express interest in contracting processing capacity;
- Signing of a confidentiality agreement for the exchange of information between Petrobras and the potential contractor;
- Exchange of initial information and definition of the negotiation schedule between the parties;
- Negotiation between the parties for the execution of the processing contract.
