Accumulated depreciation and impairment (4) (1,629) (60,354) (6,608) (37,957) (19,356) (125,904)
(1) Composed of production platforms, refineries, thermoelectric power plants, natural gas processing plants, pipelines, and other operating, storage and production plants, including subsea equipment for the production and flow of oil and gas, depreciated based on the units of production method.
(2) See note 8 for assets under construction by operating segment.
(3) Composed of exploration and production assets related to wells, abandonment and dismantling of areas, signature bonuses associated with proved reserves and other costs directly associated with the exploration and production of oil and gas, except for assets under "Equipment and other assets".
(4) In the case of land and assets under construction, refers only to impairment losses.
(5) Mainly includes transfers between classes of assets and transfers from Prepayments.

 

 

Additions in assets under construction are mainly due to investments in the development of production in the Búzios field and other fields in the Santos basin, Espírito Santo basin and Campos basin. As for additions to right-of-use assets primarily relate to the rigs for E&P operations, with the corresponding record on leasing liability.

18.2.Estimated useful life

The useful life of assets depreciated are shown below:

 

 
Asset Weighted average useful life in years
Buildings and improvement 37 (between 25 and 50)
Equipment and other assets 24 (between 1 to 31) - except assets by the units of production method
Exploration and development costs Units of production method or 20 years
Right-of-use 13 (between 1 and 50)

 

 

18.3.Right-of-use assets

The right-of-use assets comprise the following underlying assets:

       
  Platforms Vessels Properties Total
Cost 31,412 31,608 3,449 66,469
Accumulated depreciation and impairment (8,306) (16,526) (1,342) (26,174)

Accumulated depreciation and impairment (6,692) (13,593) (1,016) (21,301)
Balance at December 31, 2025 21,925 13,039 2,008 36,972

 

 

18.4.Production Individualization Agreements (AIPs)

Petrobras has AIPs signed in Brazil with partner companies in E&P consortia which provides for the equalization of expenses and production volumes in shared reservoirs, mainly related to the following fields: Agulhinha, Berbigão, Budião Noroeste, Budião Sudeste, the pre-salt layer of Jubarte, and Sururu.

The table below presents changes in the estimate of amounts relating to the execution of the AIPs submitted to the approval of the ANP:

           
          Jan-Jun/2026 Jan-Jun/2025
Opening balance, net         409 577
Additions (write-offs) of assets         (35) (353)
Other (income) and expenses         21 676
Indexation charges         (27)
Payments made         (161)
Cash inflow         595
Translation adjustments         30 97
Closing balance, net         832 997

 

 

These changes reflect the best available estimate of the assumptions used in the calculation base and the sharing of assets in areas to be equalized.

Sapinhoá Shared Reservoir

On March 12, 2026, Petrobras paid US$ 42 to the Brazilian Federal Government, represented by PPSA, regarding the signing of the Amendment to the AIP of the Sapinhoá Shared Reservoir, approved by ANP in the third quarter of 2025.

Tupi Shared Reservoir

In the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, Petrobras received US$ 595 from partner companies and paid US$ 119 to the Brazilian Federal Government represented by Pré-Sal Petróleo (PPSA), in relation to the equalization process of the Tupi Shared Reservoir.

Berbigão and Sururu shared reservoirs

On April 30, 2026, ANP approved the AIP for the Berbigão and Sururu shared reservoirs, in the Santos Basin, effective as of May 1, 2026. The agreement covers the BM-S-11A concession agreement, operated by Petrobras (42.5%), in partnership with Shell (25%), TotalEnergies (22.5%), and Petrogal (10%), and the transfer of rights agreement, operated by Petrobras (100%).

As a result of this individualization process, the financial settlement of costs incurred and revenues relating to volumes produced until the effective date of the AIP is subject to negotiation among the partner companies.

18.5.Capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization

The capitalization rate used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalization was the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings that were outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, the capitalization rate was 7.43% p.a. (7.17% p.a. for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025).
