Petrobras has detected the presence of hydrocarbons in the pre-salt layer of the Campos Basin. According to the state-run oil giant, the well, drilled 2,984 meters deep into the water, is located 201 km off the coast of Rio de Janeiro state.

“The hydrocarbon-bearing interval was confirmed through electrical logs, gas indications, and fluid sampling,” the company stated.

The samples will be sent for laboratory analysis. The assessments, Petrobras reported, will make it possible to determine the characteristics of the reservoirs and fluids and to decide whether to continue studying the area’s potential.

“The well was drilled safely, with respect for the environment and the people,” the company added.

The company’s operations in block C-M-477, in the Campos Basin, “are aligned with the strategy to replenish oil and gas reserves by operating in frontier exploration areas in partnership with other companies, ensuring that the national energy demand is met during the energy transition.”

With a 70 percent stake, Petrobras operates the block in partnership with British Petroleum, which holds the remaining portion.
