Petrobras (PBR) Hit by Dividend Fiasco: All You Need to Know

  • In a dramatic shakeup, the Brazilian government ousted Petroleo Brasileiro S.A., or Petrobras (PBR Quick QuotePBR - Free Report) CEO Jean Paul Prates last week. The dismissal, prompted by disagreements over dividend policies, underscores ongoing tensions between the state-controlled oil giant and President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s administration. This development marks the fifth change in Petrobras' leadership within three years, highlighting persistent political interfWhat Happened?The ousting of Prates, who served less than 18 months, reflects President Lula’s push to reduce investor payouts and boost investments in areas such as renewable energy and refineries. Prates’ tenure was marred by disagreements with government-appointed board members over the decision to pay extraordinary dividends to shareholders. Critics argue that the government's influence threatens to prioritize political goals over shareholder interests, echoing concerns from Petrobras' past scandals and mismanagement.Magda Chambriard, a former head of the Brazilian oil and gas regulator ANP, has been appointed as Prates' successor. Chambriard, who aligns closely with Lula’s views, advocates lower dividends and increased capital spending on domestic projects, such as refining capacity and shipbuilding. Market ReactionFollowing the announcement, Petrobras' shares slipped by 6%, making it the biggest loser on Brazil’s benchmark stock index on Wednesday. The company’s American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) in New York also dropped 6% in after-hours trading. Analysts expressed concerns over the abrupt leadership change, which they fear signals increased governmental intervention in the company’s operations. The change is also perceived to increase uncertainties surrounding PBR’s investment strategy, particularly regarding capital allocation.Finncial PerformanceAmid the leadership turmoil, Petrobras recently reported its first-quarter results, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The underperformance can be blamed on rising pre-salt lifting costs that resulted in weak upstream profitability, plus higher refining outlay. This was partly offset by strong production.Recurring net income, which strips one-time items, came in at $4,816 million compared with $7,392 million a year earlier. Petrobras’ adjusted EBITDA fell to $12,127 million from $13,956 million a year ago.Final WordsPetrobras' dividend strategy has been a contentious issue. While Lula’s administration favors reinvesting profits into national projects to stimulate economic growth, this approach conflicts with the preferences of international investors who seek higher returns. The market’s reaction to the leadership change has been negative, reflecting fears of increased political intervention and its potential impact on the company's financial stability and strategic direction. With the appointment of Magda Chambriard, Petrobras is likely to see a shift toward policies that prioritize national economic interests over shareholder returns, further complicating its investment landscape.3 Energy Stocks to BuyPetrobras carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) at present.

Petrobras (PBR) Launches Newbuild Support Vessel Tenders

  • Petrobras (PBR Quick QuotePBR - Free Report) , the renowned Brazilian state-run oil and gas company, is set to launch two significant tenders by the end of the year. These tenders aim to contract up to 26 newbuild offshore support vessels, marking a significant effort to rejuvenate Brazil's shipbuilding industry. This initiative is expected to generate substantial investments, potentially reaching $2.5 billion. The announcement was made just hours before Jean Paul Prates resigned as CEO, signaling a key moment for Petrobras and the Brazilian maritime sector.Revitalizing Brazil's Shipbuilding IndustryEconomic Impact of New Vessels: The plan to commission 26 newbuild vessels is a strategy to restore the Brazilian shipbuilding industry's former glory. By introducing 10 oil spill response vessels (OSRVs) and 16 remotely operated vehicle support vessels (RSVs), Petrobras aims to create a ripple effect in the economy. These new buildings are anticipated to spur significant investments, amounting to $2.5 billion. This influx of capital is expected to enhance job creation, boost local economies and position Brazil as a key player in the global shipbuilding arena. Technological Advancements and Innovation: The introduction of advanced OSRVs and RSVs signifies a leap in technological capabilities for Brazil. These vessels are equipped with cutting-edge technology designed to meet the stringent demands of offshore drilling and environmental protection.The focus on oil spill response highlights Petrobras's commitment to environmental stewardship, while the RSVs will enhance the efficiency and safety of offshore operations. This dual approach not only strengthens Petrobras's operational capacity but also aligns with global trends toward more sustainable and technologically advanced maritime solutions.Strategic Importance for PetrobrasSupporting Offshore Drilling Operations: Petrobras's decision to launch these tenders is closely linked to its long-term offshore drilling operations and field development plans in the second half of this decade. The new vessels will be integral in supporting these operations, ensuring efficient and safe extraction of offshore resources. The OSRVs will provide crucial oil spill response capabilities, mitigating environmental risks associated with offshore drilling. Meanwhile, the RSVs will support remotely operated underwater vehicles, essential for maintaining and monitoring offshore infrastructure.Long-term Contracts and Operational Stability: By securing long-term contracts for these vessels, Petrobras aims to ensure operational stability and predictability. Long-term charters will provide a steady stream of income for the shipyards and operators, fostering a stable economic environment. This stability is crucial for planning and executing extensive offshore projects, contributing to Petrobras's overarching goal of sustainable growth and development in the energy sector.Boosting Local Economies: The tenders for 26 newbuild vessels present a significant opportunity for local shipyards and associated industries. The construction and maintenance of these vessels will create numerous jobs from skilled labor to administrative positions. The economic benefits will extend beyond the shipyards, impacting local suppliers, subcontractors and service providers. This holistic economic boost will invigorate local communities and contribute to regional development.ConclusionPetrobras' initiative to revitalize Brazil's shipbuilding industry should lead to significant economic benefits, attract substantial investments and position the country as a leader in the global maritime sector. By focusing on technological innovation and environmental sustainability, PBR is setting a new standard for the industry. As Petrobras moves forward with these ambitious tenders, the potential for economic growth and industry advancement is immense, heralding a new era for Brazil's maritime industry.

  • * Brazilian real biggest weekly decliner among peers * Latam stocks set to log first weekly decline in six * Trump attack on China apps bruises risk, boosts dollar By Shreyashi Sanyal Aug 7 (Reuters) - Latin American currencies fell on Friday, with Brazil's real lagging peers for the week as U.S. President Donald Trump's steps toward banning popular Chinese mobile apps helped the dollar gain some lost ground. The real crumbled 1.7% against a strengthening dollar after the Trump administration unveiled bans on U.S. transactions with China's ByteDance, owner of video-sharing app TikTok, and Tencent, operator of messenger app WeChat, which go into effect in 45 days. "Apart from the obvious fallout to Tencent and ByteDance, Washington's move is sure to ratchet up geopolitical tensions with Beijing once again, after a relatively quiet couple of weeks," said Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst at OANDA.

Brazil's Petrobras posts $500 million loss despite record exports to China

  • Brazilian state-run oil firm Petroleo Brasileiro SA on Thursday posted a loss of 2.7 billion reais ($524 million) in the second quarter, hurt by tumbling oil prices despite record export volumes to China. In a securities filing, Petrobras, as the firm is known, said its cash generation, or EBITDA, was 24.99 billion reais in the April to June quarter. The swing to a loss illustrates how record exports by Petrobras and fairly steady production levels were not enough to insulate the Rio de Janeiro-based company from the far-reaching effects of the novel coronavirus on the oil industry.

Shell’s $780 Million Dry Hole Dims Outlook for Brazil Oil

  • (Bloomberg) -- Royal Dutch Shell Plc has just drilled a dry hole in Brazil’s premier offshore region, a sign state-controlled Petrobras may have already grabbed the best oil deposits and left competitors hunting for smaller game.Shell completed its first well at the high-profile Saturno prospect on June 13 without reporting any discoveries, according to drilling data from the National Petroleum Agency. The regulator’s press office confirmed it was a dry hole, while Shell said it can’t comment during a quiet period ahead of earnings.Expectations were high from the start. Shell and Chevron Corp. outbid Exxon Mobil Corp. with a $780 million signing bonus for the prospect in 2018, and the following year Colombia’s Ecopetrol bought a 10% stake in the license for an undisclosed amount.The results add to a string of exploration setbacks outside the initial cluster of monster fields that turned Brazil into Latin America’s biggest producer and a global hotspot for exploration.Last year Petrobras and BP Plc struck out at the Peroba prospect. Then Shell discovered oil at the Alto de Cabo Frio Oeste and Petrobras at Uirapuru, but preliminary information indicates that both prospects may not pass economic hurdles, said Marcelo de Assis, the head of Latin American upstream research at Wood Mackenzie Ltd.“If you eliminate all these prospects, future production linked to exploratory activities will go down significantly,” he said. “It will reduce interest in future bid rounds and increase pressure in more favorable fiscal terms.”Petrobras is doing technical work at Peroba and studying rock samples at Uirapuru to evaluate the block’s potential, the Rio de Janeiro-based producer said in a response to questions.Petrobras’s initial success rate of 100% in the pre-salt drove interest in exploration rounds during the past decade. Shell turned the country into one if its primary growth markets when it bought BG Group Plc in 2015, giving it access to Brazil’s early pre-salt discoveries that are now its biggest producers.Existing pre-salt fields are economic even at current oil prices, and majors including Exxon, Total SA and Equinor ASA have exploration acreage in the region. Exxon has a block adjacent to Shell’s Saturno, and Brazil’s offshore industry will be watching closely when it start drilling.“There is a risk that the best fields have already been discovered. The pre-salt polygon is a huge area and can be quite heterogeneous from a geologic standpoint,” Assis said.Petrobras’s most recent development wells at pre-salt fields already declared commercial have confirmed expectations, the company said. It also has a program to completely eliminate dry holes by using artificial intelligence to harness its accumulated exploration data, and to reduce the amount of time it takes to start commercial production.(Updates with comments from Petrobras in final paragraph)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.

Offshore Oil’s $105 Billion Hangover Adding to Industry Woes

  • (Bloomberg) -- Aging offshore oil wells that once brought market prominence to Europe, the U.S. Gulf and Brazil are increasingly money losers that companies want shut down amid low oil prices and a struggling global economy. But the effort won’t be cheap.The cost worldwide: An estimated $104.5 billion by 2030, according to Wood Mackenzie Ltd. At least 23 platforms a year could be retired in the North Sea alone, Rystad Energy Inc. reported in May, while the national oil company in Brazil has said it’s planning to spend $6 billion to retire 18 platforms, pipelines and other infrastructure by 2025.Companies can’t just abandon aging offshore wells. In most cases, regulators who approved them required pricey guarantees to make sure they’re properly sealed, and there are environmental issues involved in their upkeep. That can mean the use of divers or robot submarines to plug wells and pipelines on the ocean floor, an expensive proposition, as well as cutting apart and moving steel platforms that can weigh as much as 17,000 tons.“Abandonment costs will haunt the industry in the years to come, especially if governments get tougher with parent company guarantees,” said Marcelo de Assis, the head of Latin American upstream research at Wood Mackenzie Ltd. “The crisis fast forwarded the situation.”The spectacular decline in North Sea production since it peaked in the 1990s has left so much equipment unused that by 2025, oil companies will spend more on removing redundant equipment than developing new fields, according to Wood Mackenzie.Deepwater production was a new frontier for the oil industry in the 1980s and 1990s, and many of these projects are now reaching the end of their lives.But the push to close offshore wells comes as the oil industry has suffered some major blows. They include a price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia that flooded the world with crude, a pandemic that destroyed demand and skepticism from investors who want less money spent on exploration and more returned to them. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies will meet Saturday by video conference and, according to a delegate, are set to extend output cuts to prop up the oil market.At the same time, the U.S. shale boom has drastically lowered the cost of opening and operating a well on land, as well as closing one, compared with the price tag tied to wells offshore.Despite a recent uptick in oil prices, they remain too low and volatile to lure buyers to the aging and small-producing fields Brazil’s Petroleo Brasileiro SA and other deep-water operators are walking away from. The small- to mid-sized producers with low enough costs to turn a profit from exhausted oil fields are protecting their balance sheets, and banks are reluctant to provide funding.In the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, which generates about 15% of the nation’s output, explorers are expected to spend about $1 billion a year over the next half decade to decommission hundreds of wells, according to Wood Mackenzie.While the collapse in oil prices is having an effect on more offshore wells permanently shut, there’s also a push in the Gulf to extend the lives of some aging infrastructure. The key: Drilling new wells near existing platforms that can be fed by undersea pipelines as a way to cut costs.“Companies are doing everything they can to avoid abandoning facilities because that’s very expensive,” Justin Rostant, principal analyst at Wood Mackenzie, said in a phone interview. “They’re just bringing in third-party production wherever they can to extend the life of these facilities.”It costs an average of $10 million per well in deepwater and about $500,000 a well in shallow waters to plug and abandon a well in the Gulf of Mexico, Rostant said. Most wells shut down in the U.S. Gulf are coming from shallow waters, where the wells are the oldest and have lost their ability to make money.U.K. PayoutMeanwhile, the U.K. will be the leader in North Sea decommissioning, followed by Norway and Denmark. The U.K. is forecast to pay out more than 20 billion pounds ($26 billion) to close its platforms in the region by 2030.Removing offshore platforms can be controversial. Royal Dutch Shell Plc has sought permission to leave the giant concrete “legs” of its iconic Brent field in the North Sea because it says removing them would pose a greater environmental risk. However, Germany and the Netherlands, as well as environmental group Greenpeace, have raised concerns over leaving the structures in the sea.Brazil’s GoalThe goal in Brazil is to restore the environment as close to its original state as possible, Raphael Neves Moura, a superintendent at ANP, Brazil’s national petroleum agency, said during a web conference held by the Brazilian Petroleum Institute, an industry group.ANP introduced regulation in April to handle the influx of deserted equipment due to fallout from the pandemic. The agency will seek to find buyers for discarded fields before moving to abandonment, Moura said.In a statement, Petrobras said it continues to seek buyers to take on assets it’s written off. Petrobras is planning to auction three Campos Basin platforms that date back to the 1980s for scrap metal in July. These platforms have been off line since 2015 or so, so weren’t part of the 62 shut since the pandemic.In the first quarter, Petrobras wrote off 62 shallow water platforms, or about 75% of its fleet, as part of a 65 billion real ($12.5 billion) impairment. The wells to be closed only produced a combined 23,000 barrels a day, less than half of Petrobras’s top wells in the so-called pre-salt region.‘Stress Tests’In Brazil, the Campos basin has been eclipsed by larger discoveries with higher-quality oil even deeper in the Atlantic, where Rio de Janeiro-based Petrobras is focusing its investments. As a result production has plummeted at these fields, and Petrobras is carrying out “stress tests” at its remaining projects to weed out others that can’t survive.Rystad expects low service costs to encourage operators worldwide to clear out old equipment now that low oil prices have undermined incentives to extend them.No matter how the millions of tons of steel and pipes are removed, governments are likely to step in to make sure tax payers aren’t the ones paying, said Wood Mackenzie’s Assis.“There is a push from regulators. There will be more pressure for financial guarantees,” he said.(Updates to add OPEC+ meeting in seventh paragraph)For more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.comSubscribe now to stay ahead with the most trusted business news source.©2020 Bloomberg L.P.

The cash, which comes from a massive settlement payment from state-run oil firm Petrobras, will be spent on patrol officers, jeeps, surveillance technology and other outlays to protect the rainforest, officials in all nine Amazon states told Reuters.
