Field and context

Itapu is a large pre-salt oil-and-gas accumulation in the former Iara area of the Santos Basin. Public geological studies identify heterogeneous Aptian lacustrine carbonate reservoirs in the Barra Velha Formation, beneath the Ariri salt. The field is developed as a single-FPSO subsea scheme: producing and injection wells, connected by flexible pipelines and umbilicals, converge on P-71 for processing, injection, storage and export.
