Petroperú will launch a public tender to operate Lot 192 with a new partner.

Petroperú will conduct a public tender process to find a new strategic partner for the operation of Lot 192, the country's largest oil field, located in the province of Datem del Marañón, in the Loreto region. This decision comes after Perupetro accepted Petroperú as a corporate guarantor for Altamesa, a Canadian company that was part of the operating consortium.

"We will have a world-class company with experience in the hydrocarbon sector, which should be identified in the next three months as a strategic partner for the operation of Lot 192," said Petroperú Chairman of the Board, Alejandro Narváez Liceras. He added that there has been an approach from established companies interested in working with Petroperú. As part of this process, in the coming days, Perupetro will implement modifications to the current hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation contract, formalizing the exit of the Altamesa company and the incorporation of the new strategic operator that will contribute to the reactivation of oil production in the northern jungle.

The commissioning of Lot 192, which has a historical production of more than 1 billion barrels of oil, is key to the reactivation of oil production and the country's energy security.
