Excelerate Energy, Inc. (NYSE: EE) (“Excelerate” or the
“Company”) announced today that the Company and Petróleo Brasileiro
S.A. (“Petrobras”) signed a ten-year contract to charter the
floating storage and regasification unit (“FSRU”) Sequoia. Under
the Time Charter Party and Operation and Services Agreement
(collectively, the “Agreement”), which will commence on January 1,
2024, Excelerate will continue to deploy the Sequoia to provide
regasification services in Brazil, primarily at the Bahia
Regasification Terminal (TR-BA) in Salvador, Bahia.
“Brazil is an excellent market. This Agreement is an important
step in furthering Excelerate’s long-term sustainable growth plan
in South America,” said Steven Kobos, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Excelerate. “Deploying the Sequoia for 10 more years
will position Excelerate well to support Brazil’s efforts to
strengthen its energy security. We have been a reliable partner to
Petrobras for more than a decade, and we are committed to
maintaining that partnership and supporting the energy transition
for all Brazilians.”
Since 2012, Excelerate has provided regasification services in
Brazil at Petrobras’s LNG import terminals. In addition to the
Sequoia, Excelerate’s FSRU Experience is currently providing
regasification services in Brazil. Maintaining a continued presence
in the Brazilian market is a fundamental part of Excelerate’s
strategic position as a reliable backstop to the country's energy
system for which intermittent renewable energy contributes
approximately 85 percent.
This Agreement highlights Excelerate Energy’s commitment to
using its flexible FSRU fleet to enhance energy security and
reliability for its customers around the world. The deal also
expands the Company’s core regasification business, which allows
for increased visibility to predictable near-term and long-term
earnings and cash flows.
