Petrobras Extends Catu Gas Processing Contracts Beyond 2028
Petrobras and three energy firms have extended their contracts for natural gas processing at the Catu Natural Gas Treatment Unit (UTG Catu) in Pojuca, Bahia, Brazil. The facility is operated by Petrobras and serves as a key processing hub for natural gas produced from onshore fields across Bahia.
The companies signed contract addenda that took immediate effect and are designed to ensure continued access to gas processing infrastructure. The agreements provide greater operational and commercial visibility for producers while supporting the uninterrupted processing of natural gas from the region.
The extension is expected to strengthen confidence among market participants and reinforce Catu's strategic importance to Bahia's energy sector. It also introduces revised commercial and operational terms aimed at lowering costs and improving utilization of available infrastructure.
