石油设备网讯 据路透社圣保罗报道，根据巴西石油监管机构ANP的数据，巴西国家石油公司第一季度产量较上年同期下降了3.5%，原因是一些计划外的停工，并将下跌归因于一些计划的和非计划的停工。
监管机构在一份声明中表示，产量下降是由于巴西国家石油公司所拥有的平台和FPSO 设备在1月和2月的维修工作和其他中断所致。
尽管在3月份，巴西国家石油公司开始运营位于该国最多产的巴西海上盐下油区的三个平台，该公司第一季度石油产量仍下降到了每天约240万桶石油当量。
巴西国家石油公司在较传统的陆上和“盐下”海上资产上的投资下降，对其生产造成了冲击，该公司还正在剥离许多遗留的油田，但到目前为止，这些油田的销售都没有成功。
ANP称，3月份巴西的年石油产量增长了0.96%，达到每天326.1万桶石油当量。
尽管巴西国家石油公司一直以来都在公布月度生产统计数据，但自1月份以来就没有这样做过，周四晚上，该公司通知路透社，它将转向季度报告石油产量。

Quarterly Petrobras oil production falls amid platform stoppages
Oil production by Petroleo Brasileiro SA fell 3.5 percent in the first quarter from the same period a year before, according to Brazil’s oil regulator ANP, which attributed the fall to a number of scheduled and unscheduled stoppages.
In a statement, the regulator said the production declines were due to maintenance work and other interruptions in January and February at platforms and FPSO units owned by Petrobras, as the firm is known.
The fall in production, to roughly 2.4 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), comes even as Petrobras initiated operations at three platforms in March in Brazil’s offshore, pre-salt oil area, considered the nation’s most prolific oil producing zone.
Production at Petrobras has been hit by a decline in investments in the firm’s more traditional onshore and ‘post-salt’ offshore assets. The company is also divesting many of its legacy oilfields, but relatively few of those sales have so far closed.
In Brazil as a whole, oil production rose 0.96 percent in annual terms to 3.261 million boe/d in March, the ANP said.
While Petrobras has historically divulged monthly production statistics, it has not done so since January. On Thursday evening, the firm informed Reuters it would shift to quarterly reporting of oil production.
