Ca risque d' étre une sacré féte, ils en ont l'habitude tous les ans au carnaval, mais en plus avec les découvertes de pétrole en offshore l'économie devrait étre assez florissante à ce moment la vu que ca devrait commencer à débiter de façon significative.

Bon, d' ici la ils ont plus de 400 milliards de $ à investir dans l'exploration et dévelloppement pétrolier.

et qu' en dit Sadad Al Husseini ?

...........
Si Tupi, qui a été découvert il y a quelques années, n’est pas en production avant 2017 ou 2018, cela représente beaucoup de temps à attendre. Quelle est la cible [de la production de ces nouveaux gisements] ? Un million de barils par jour. Les baisses de production auront dépassé ce niveau bien avant, et certainement au Brésil lui-même. Nous restons donc fondamentalement dans la même situation.

Pétrobras atteint le chiffre record de 2 millions de b/j pour le pétrole brut en Septembre 2009.
(non compté le Gaz en equivalent pétrole).

Brazil's Petrobras reports record oil output in September

October 20, 2009

Brazil's state-owned energy firm Petrobras said Monday its oil output hit a record 2.003 million barrels per day in September, up 1.2 percent from August and 5.6 percent year on year.

The figure surpassed the previous mark set in March by 12,000 barrels.

Petrobras said the increase was a result of resumed exploiting activities in the pre-salt area of Santos Basin and in the Campos Basin, both located off Brazil's southeastern coast.

The rise in output was also attributed to increased production at the Piranema platform in the Sergipe sea and the wells interconnected to two platforms in the Campos Basin.

The company's total domestic production reached 2.326 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in September, up 1.3 percent from August and 4.5 percent from the same month last year. Domestic natural gas production was flat at 51.358 million cubic meters in September.

The oil and gas production abroad totaled 245,263 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up 4.7 percent from August and 10 percent year on year. The rise was attributed to increased production in the Agbami and Akpo fields in Nigeria.

Petrobras' total oil and gas production reached 2.572 million barrels of oil equivalent in September, up 1.6 percent from August and 5 percent from the same month in 2008.

Shell Barrels Out First Million at Parque das Conchas

Production has now hit over one million barrels of oil at the Parque das Conchas fields 120 kilometers off the coast of Brazil, where ultra-deep water and a constant swell makes for tough operating conditions.

A series of technology firsts unlocked major new resources beneath water nearly two kilometers deep. Huge technical challenges had to be overcome to bring the fields to production. Remote-controlled submarines operating in massive pressures on the ice-cold sea floor installed the equipment needed to produce the oil from deep beneath the seabed.

A vast network of wells and pipelines connect reservoirs scattered up to 20 kilometers apart. In a double technical first, oil and gas are separated on the seabed before powerful electric pumps push the oil upwards from the low-pressure reservoirs to a specially converted production vessel on the surface that stores it for shipping to shore.

Petrobras pubie ses chiffres pour 2009.
La production est en hausse de 6.3 % par rapport a 2008. En moyenne ca fait 1.97 millions de barils/j en 2009.

Petrobras' 2009 Brazil oil output up 6 pct yr/yr

RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Brazilian state-run oil company Petrobras said on Tuesday domestic oil output in 2009 increased 6.3 percent over the 2008 average on rising production in the Campos Basin.

The company's oil production in Brazil, including natural gas liquids, rose to an average of 1.97 million barrels per day (bpd), though this was still below its 2009 target of 2.05 million bpd.

"The principal highlights of the year were the increase in production of the P-52 and P-54 platforms in the Roncador field, the start of operations of the platforms P-53 (Marlim Leste) P-51 (Marlim Sul) ... and FPSO Cidade de Sao Vicente (Tupi)," the company said in a statement.

Domestic output slipped 0.2 percent in December to 1.987 million bpd from 1.991 million bpd the month earlier.

Production outside Brazil fell to 150,300 bpd last month from 150,900 bpd in November.

Brazil's Congress is currently discussing legislation that would make Petrobras the sole operator of new projects in the vast offshore subsalt province with a minimum 30 percent stake in those operations.

Le Brésil va construire un nouveau chantier naval avec l' aide de la compagnie asiatique Jurong Shipyard (Singapour et Japon) sur la cote dl' état de Espirito Santo.
Ce chantier naval aura pour vocation de construire le matériel de forage offshore dont ele Brésil à besoin.

Jurong Shipyard Sets Up Shop in Brazil

Sembcorp Marine's wholly-owned subsidiary Jurong Shipyard (JSPL) will be building a new shipyard in Brazil to cater directly to one of the fastest growing offshore oil and gas exploration and production markets in the world.

A freehold land area of 825,000 sqm (approximately 1.7 times larger than the land size of Jurong Shipyard's Tanjong Kling location) with 1.6 km of coastline in the State of Espirito Santo in Brazil has been acquired and will be developed as a shipyard. Located in the Municipal of Aracruz, the site is about 80 km by road north of Vitoria, the capital of Espirito Santo State which is the 2nd largest producer of oil in Brazil. The site is strategically located close to the offshore Espirito Santo Basin, which is one of the recently discovered giant pre-salt oil basins of Brazil, making it an ideal location to support the country's oil and gas activities.

The investment in the new shipyard is in line with Sembcorp Marine's global hub strategy and it reinforces the Group's commitment to forging a strategic foothold in Brazil to grow its offshore oil and gas businesses.

Petrobras annonce encore la découverte de 2 (petits) gisements de pétrole en offshore.

Two oil reserves discovered in Brazil

Rio de Janeiro, Feb 26

Brazil’s state energy giant Petrobras announced Thursday that it has located two new significant oil deposits, estimated at a combined 65 million barrels.

Both deposits are in the Barracuda oilfield, about 100 km off the coast of Rio de Janeiro state and were detected through one single oil well.

One of the deposits, has recoverable reserves of 25 million barrels around 800 metres below sea level, while the second holds an estimated 40 million barrels at a depth of 4,300 metres below sea level.

Betrobras reported massive oil findings off the Brazilian coast in 2007 and 2008, at depths of several thousand metres below the surface.

Brazil’s proven, commercially recoverable oil reserves are estimated at nearly 13 billion barrels, ranking 15th in the world, roughly equivalent to Algeria, according to US government data.

le brésilien Petrobras annonce deux découvertes au large de la côte sud-est


RIO DE JANEIRO, 25 février (Xinhua) -- La société étatique brésilienne de pétrole et de gaz, Petrobras, a annoncé jeudi des découvertes de pétrole au large de la côte sud-est du pays.

Selon Petrobras, deux champs pétrolifères ont été découverts au cours de l'exploration au large de Barracuda situé dans le Bassin de Campos, à quelque 100 km de la côte de l'Etat de Rio de Janeiro. La profondeur d'eau de la zone s'élève à environ 860 mètres.
L'une des découverte a été réalisée dans les eaux extrêmement profondes, soit 4.340 mètres. Selon les premières informations, le pétrole de cette zone est brut léger avec une densité API s'élevant à 18, le volume récupérable atteint 40 millions de barils.

L'autre découverte se trouve dans les eaux peu profondes, zone connue pour la production de pétrole. Le volume récupérable pourrait s'établir à 25 millions de barils.

Il s'agit de la deuxième découverte de Petrobras dans les eaux intérieures en février. La compagnie a annoncé le 11 février une découverte dans le bassin de Campos avec une réserve de 25 millions de barils.

Petrobras revoit en légére baisse son plan d' investissement triannuel sur 2011-2014 à la valeur de 138.8 milliards de $.

Petrobras Trims 2011-2014 Investment Plan Target

Petrobras|, March 30, 2010

Petrobras' Board of Directors (BOD) approved today the revision of the project portfolio for the 2011-2014 period, with total investments of up to R$250 billion (US $138.8 billion), instead of the R$265 billion approved during a previous meeting and announced in a statement on March 19, 2010.

The Board also approved a set of projects that total investments of about R$462 billion for the post-2014 period. These projects were appraised based on a preliminary view, and in line with Petrobras' Vision for 2020. It should be noted that part of the post-2014 investments represent the development of projects that are already included in the 2010-2014 portfolio but have maturity time longer than the 5-year Business Plan, most of them on exploration and production segment.

In the Exploration & Production (E&P) area, the investments aim to increase oil and natural gas production, taking advantage of the success that was achieved in the post- and pre-salt and also the exploratory activities. The E&P project portfolio includes the construction of production platforms and drilling rigs, support vessels, and investments in infrastructure for transportation.

For the Gas & Energy area, the goals are to diversify and flexibilize sources of supply of Natural Gas to use the associated gas produced in the pre-salt. In the fertilizer area, investments will be directed to supply the large Brazilian agricultural potential with increasing demands for fertilizers, aiming to increase the scale of production, company earnings with gas production, and to ensure additional demand for the input.

les chinois s'intéresse aux hydrocarbures brésilien, discussion la semaine prochaine avec la visite du président chinois Jintao.

Brazil sees China interest in offshore oil fields

* Chinese firms trying to buy stakes in existing projects
* Also keen on investments in refineries, biofuels

RIO DE JANEIRO, April 6 (Reuters) - Chinese energy companies will likely participate in bidding for Brazil's offshore subsalt oil reserves when auctions begin and are already seeking to buy stakes in existing oil projects, a top energy official told Reuters.
Chinese President Hu Jintao is slated to visit Brazil next week to deepen ties with the South American nation as it taps tens of billions of barrels in the offshore subsalt province that has become a new frontier for petroleum exploration.

"They want to know how to get in," said Haroldo Lima, director of Brazil's National Petroleum Agency, or ANP, in a telephone interview. "They're interested in buying from anyone that's willing to sell. I went there to explain the rules for how they can do that."
Auctions for the subsalt blocks have been yet been scheduled because Congress is still discussing new rules for companies investing projects there, part of an attempt by President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to boost state control over those areas.
Chinese companies are also interested in investing in refineries and biofuels projects, possibly allowing them to import finished motor gasoline that is already blended with ethanol, Lima said.

The interest in principally from Sinopec , but China National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC) and China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC) have also expressed a desire to invest.
"They could refine our oil, mix (the products) with ethanol and import mixed Brazilian gasoline. They thought this was a very good idea and they're discussing it," said Lima.
But he said Chinese companies have been insistent on being majority shareholders in new joint ventures, which would prevent them taking part in projects with state oil company Petrobras that are already in development.
He said Brazil's 11th bidding round for oil blocks, which includes onshore and shallow water projects but not subsalt blocks, will likely not take place until 2011.

Bidding for subsalt blocks was suspended in 2007 when Lula decided to change the country's oil laws.
Lima traveled to China on invitation from his Chinese counterpart, Zhan Guobao, director general of the country's energy administration body. He took part in a Brazil-China investment promotion conference also attended by Petrobras Finance Director Almir Barbassa.

Sinopec to develop two blocks off Brazil's coast

* China development bank also signed agreement (Recasts with Petrobras statement, edits)

By Raymond Colitt

BRASILIA, April 15 (Reuters) - Brazil's state oil company Petrobras signed a broad cooperation agreement on Thursday with Chinese oil company Sinopec and China's development bank that includes possible partnerships in two oil blocks.

The deal, signed ahead of a summit meeting of leaders from Brazil, Russia, India and China, known as the BRICs, established tentative and wide-ranging deals in contrast to last year's $10 billion oil-for-loan contract between Petrobras and China.

Petrobras said in a statement it reached agreements in areas including exploration and production, refining and transport, and supply of goods and services.

"In the area of E&P, we note the intention of the two sides to evaluate future partnerships, including the possibility for Petrobras to sell part of its stake in the blocks BM-PAMA-3 and BM-PAMA-8, located in the Para-Maranhao basin," the company said late on Thursday.

It also said the agreement included "cooperation with the CDB (China Development Bank) in relation to possible bilateral financing, to be negotiated between the two sides."

Petrobras won 100 percent control of the two Para-Maranhao blocks in auctions in 2001 and 2004, according to its Web site.
