A few useful answers

Before we talk.

Who is Brazil Energy Radar for?

International equipment manufacturers, vessel owners and service companies exploring or developing business in Brazil’s oil and gas industry. Support can focus on a specific opportunity, a target account or a broader commercial plan.

Can you help beyond Petrobras?

Yes. We can scope market research, account development and commercial support for other operators, EPCs and industrial buyers in Brazil. Access to opportunities depends on each buyer’s procurement channels and supplier requirements.

Do we need a Brazilian company to start?

That depends on your supply model, the buyer’s requirements and the contract. We help you compare the commercial implications of direct supply, representation, distribution and a local operation, involving legal and tax specialists where needed.

How are engagements and fees structured?

We agree the scope before work begins. Focused research, qualification and bid-support assignments can be scoped as projects; ongoing representation can use a retainer and, where appropriate, an agreed commission. There is no promise of qualification or contract award.
