Accounting policy for joint operations

Accounting policy for joint operations

The E&P consortia are classified as joint operations, where the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to these consortia are accounted for in the financial statements individually, observing the applicable specific accounting policies and reflecting the portion of the contractual rights and obligations that the Company has.

Accounting Policy for unitization agreements

Accounting Policy for unitization agreements

A unitization agreement occurs when a reservoir extends across two or more license or contract areas. In this case, partners pool their individual interests in return for an interest in the overall unit (shared reservoir) and determine their new share in the single producing unit.

Events that occurred prior to the unitization agreement may lead to the need for compensation between the partners. The compensation will be the difference between the expenses actually incurred by each party up to the reference date and those that should have been incurred by each party if the established participations in the shared reservoir by the AIP were already in effect during that period.

At the signing of the AIP, an amount to be reimbursed to the Company will be recognized as an asset only when there is a contractual right to reimbursement or when the reimbursement is practically certain. An amount to be reimbursed by the Company will be recognized as a liability when it derives from a contractual obligation or, when the outflow of funds is deemed probable and the amount can be reliable estimated. The provision will be offset by an increase or decrease in PP&E, revenues and/or expenses, according to the nature of the events to be reimbursed.
