Brazil is continent-sized with three different E&P environments

Onshore

Mature Basins and New Frontier

Basins (mostly gas prone). Potential

for unconventional to be unleashed.

One of the World´s hottest oil play,

home to the largest offshore oil discoveries in the

last decade.

Pre-Salt Conventional

Offshore All the East Margin besides the pre-salt

region and Equatorial Margin, including new

frontier areas and a significant number of large mature fields.
