Petrobras Makes Subsalt Find

摘要

Brazil’s state-controlled oil firm Petrobras said on Tuesday it had discovered an un- known quantity of crude oil in the subsalt region around the offshore Campos Basin. The oil was found 81 miles from Rio de Janeiro state’s coastline and lies at a depth of 4,536 meters and below waters just over one mile deep in the Albacora Leste concession, a company statement said. Petrobras said preliminary analysis indicated the presence of good quality, light oil.
