Production Volume:

Baúna is located in concession BM-S-40, in the southern Santos Basin and comprises the Baúna and Piracaba light oil fields and the undeveloped Patola oil discovery. It is located approximately 50 kilometres from Karoon’s Neon and Goiá discoveries to the east and Clorita exploration block to the south. * Production from Baúna includes 6 oil production wells, 3 water injection wells and 1 gas injection well from two separate reservoirs, Baúna and Piracaba.
The field is operated using the Petrojarl Cidade De Itajai FPSO
- It is capable of processing at least 80,000 barrels of oil per day and 70.0 MMscfd of production gas, injecting more than 96,000 barrels of water per day and storing 650,000 barrels of oil.
The Bauna And Piracaba Oil And Gas Field were previously known as the Tiro and Sidon Oil and Gas Field

**Sembcorp:** FPSO Conversion
- Detailed engineering, installation and integration of 16 topside modules, installation of spread mooring and power generation systems, accommodation upgrading as well as extensive piping and electrical cabling works.

The Baúna Oligocene reservoirs have excellent geological characteristics for production. The reservoirs sandstones are laterally extensive, 10 to 40m thick, typically approximately 30% porosity and 2 to 6 Darcy permeability, with good aquifer support and high recovery factors. The reservoirs occur around 2000 metres below sea level in combined stratigraphic and structural traps which are well delineated by a strong seismic response on high quality 3D seismic data.
