Galp informs that the Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) approved the Unitisation Agreements (UA) related with the Atapu and Sépia accumulations. These had been submitted by the BM-S-11A and BM-S-24 consortia, respectively, along with Petrobras for the Transfer of Rights area (ToR) and Pré-Sal Petróleo S.A. (PPSA) for Atapu open area.
As these discoveries extend outside its original licences towards the adjacent areas, a unitisation process is required according to the Brazilian legislation. The agreements establish the tract participation each party will hold on the unitised areas, as well as the terms and conditions for the shared development of the projects.



BM-S-24 | Sépia unitised
The UAs are effective as of September 1, 2019.
Unitisation processes lead to equalisations among the parties, based on past capital expenditures carried by partners for their original interest and the net profits received thereunder. These equalisations should therefore lead to reimbursements among partners as per the terms and conditions under negotiation between themselves.
The approval of the unitisation agreements do not result in any changes to Galp's production guidance since the Company's operational and financial projections already reflected the anticipated outcome from the already approved unitisation processes, as well as the expected outcome for the remaining ongoing processes.
