Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras announced that the FPSO Almirante Tamandaré, operating in the Búzios field in the Santos Basin, reached a record instantaneous production flow of 270,000 barrels of oil per day (bpd) on October 25, 2025. The platform's average production for October exceeded 250,000 bpd, surpassing its nominal capacity of 225,000 bpd.

This achievement is part of Petrobras' efforts to increase production through efficiency gains, adhering to strict safety protocols and regulatory approvals. The Búzios 7 Project, which includes the Almirante Tamandaré platform, is expected to contribute to the field reaching 1 million bpd by the end of 2025 and will soon become Petrobras' largest production field. The project is set to receive the OTC Brasil Distinguished Achievement Award for Companies.
