A new Refinery

4. Petrobras environmental commitment demanded b etter qualityproducts.

The solution found was to construct a new refinery in Brazil dedicated to process heavy oil

The Refinery

1. PETROBRAS has discovered huge quantities of heavy and extra-heavy oil in Brazil;

2. Brazil needs more diesel for domestic consump tion, mainly in the Northeast;

3. Local demand for oil products has been growin g;

Construction Schedule

Critical Feasibility Factors

Environmental Considerations

- The Petrobras policy is to be a benchmark for envi ronmental issues;

- The refinery is just 10 miles away from tropical h oliday resorts;

- Concerns about effluent disposal and atmospheric p ollution will be solved using the best available technology;

- The Pernambuco State Environmental Agency has been working closely with us.

Construction

1. The earthworks are in the final phase.

2. There are two independent refining units to process different grade heavy oils. There is a time lag in the construc tion phasing.

3. PETROBRAS have been purchasing the main equipment in the international and local markets and outsourcing t he construction with local contractors.

4. We have already contracted 70% construction work and 30% of bids are still open but are under consideration.

FUTURE

� PETROBRAS is maintaining its investments presented in the US$ 175 billion Strategic Plan with refineries, pipelines, subsea equipment, platforms, and oil tankers. As you are already awar e, the policy is to buy products manufactured locally.

� This refinery in Pernambuco is one of the most impor tant PETROBRAS onshore investment projects over the last 30 years.

� In the same place there are four anchor projects (P ort + Shipyards + Refinery + Petrochemical Plants). Their demands wi ll give incentive to establish other factories, plants, service companie s, etc.

� Due to the coming boom any investors will be able t o benefit from infrastructure, and trained technicians already in place.

FUTURE

• There are huge opportunities for already installed and newcomersin the Brazilian suppliers market (ex: service and engineering companies facing the demand, as per Petrobras inve stment project portfolio).

• In order to carry out such portfolio, Petrobras is looking forward to establishing stable long term business relationship s with companies that are willing to invest in Brazil.

FUTURE

� We see that SUAPE could easily become an oil & gas, shipbuildingand offshore industry hub to support local demand a nd to export around the world

� Several equipment suppliers have been evaluating th e possibility of installing plants in SUAPE

It is time for Brazil

So … if you are looking at Brazil and your business is oil, gas, shipbuilding, offshore equipment or petrochemicals…

…the new frontier is Pernambuco!
