NDR7 - COUNTRY REPORT

Agência Nacional do Petróleo, Gás Natural e

Biocombustíveis – ANP

NDR7 - September - 2006

• Name of Country: Brasil

• The ANP is the agency responsible to

regulation all of Oil & Gas brazilian activities

(upstream and downstream)

• ANP is the responsible for managing and

storing Exploration and Production data

acquired in Brazilian Onshore & Offshore areas.

NDR7 - Generalities

NDR7 - National Repository

WHAT IS BDEP?

• It’s the National Repository of exploration

and production data acquired in Brasil.

• Currently it stores seismic, well log and

potential field data (Grav/Mag).

• It includes data acquired during Petrobras

monopoly (pre 1998) and also those acquired

after Brazil opened the market to other

companies (post 1998).

BDEP, ITS IMPORTANCE• BDEP is the source of basic data for the geological studies to be carried out in the Brazilian Sedimentary Basins.

• These data are very important for the companies in their exploration efforts.

• They are also essential for ANP, which uses them in its own projects, and in the licensing rounds (areas evaluation, preparation of the data package, etc.).

BDEP’s Creation

• The administration of the technical data acquired in the E&P activities of the oil and gas industry in Brazil is an ANP’s legal attribution.

• To take care of this attribution a National Data Repository was necessary.

• Other Countries models had been studied. The Brazilian model was based in the Norwegian one (DISKOS group).

BDEP’s Creation (cont.)

• The Brazilian Geological Survey - CPRM was chosen to help ANP in the setup, administration and operation of the Data Bank.

• The software adopted was PetroBank (seismic and well logs).

• CPRM hired PGS Data Management, then owner of the PetroBank system (today Landmark Graphics Co.), to support the planning and the future operation.

• Today ANP has a service contract with Halliburton/Landmark.

NDR7 - National Repository

BDEP’s Creation (cont.)• The BDEP’s setup project lasted 1 year (1999/2000) and involved: - Site preparation; - Infrastructure installation; - Hardware and Software acquisition; - Loading Petrobra's Data; - Operation Testing.

• During this step a first Steering Committee was created with 15 Institutions between Service Companies, Operators, Consulting companies and Universities.

• BDEP started operating in 29/05/2000.
