Petrobras Excellence Programs

With the aim of contributing to our strategic goal of zero fatalities and the prevention of work and environmental accidents in our operations, we encourage service provider companies to invest in improving operational performance. Accordingly, we have developed several excellence programs that regularly assess compliance with best practices and standards of Quality, Health, Safety, and Environment (QHSE) as well as Legal Requirements, such as:

PEOTRAM - Operational Excellence Program for Air and Maritime Transportation - This is the annual audit system for Petrobras' air and maritime transportation operations, aimed at achieving operational excellence in the provision of helicopter and specialized maritime support vessel services. This program is used as an evaluation criterion in the company's contracting processes, and since 2021, the system has been adapted to consider companies' greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) requirements.
PEO-SONDAS - Operational Excellence Program for Maritime Rigs - This program aims to enhance operational and process safety through the management of higher-quality operations among contracted maritime drilling companies, emphasizing practices of continuous improvement and management excellence. To achieve these goals, the program incorporates third-party audits at the contractors' onshore and offshore units to assess their management system across Human Resources, Asset Management, Integration, QHSE, Operations, and Supplier Management.
PEOTER - Program for Excellence in Onshore Operations - This program aims to develop suppliers of onshore operations services in matters of Operational Excellence and Safety, standardizing and enhancing management practices and onshore operations, considering their characteristics and associated risks, the program contributes to strengthening a culture of accident prevention, environmental preservation, and health promotion.

The scoring of companies in these excellence programs is already used as a competitive advantage in vessel procurement bids, ensuring that companies with better results and distinct safety standards are contracted, thereby recognizing suppliers with superior performance.

Likewise, competitive advantages are granted to maritime vessels and rigs with lower fuel consumption. It is important to emphasize that fuel economy directly correlates with the reduction of CO2 emissions, aligning with Petrobras' decarbonization objectives and goals.
