The week has already started with the highest increase in barrels in the last 4 years (US$ 81,87 brent) and it is expected that the price will continue to rise. Venezuela, for example, has reduced its production with the crisis (from 3 million barrels/day to 1 million by next year) and Iran has been suffering political retaliation from the American government. All this conglomerates in a competitive scenario for the Brazilian pre-salt layer and in good expectations for the auctions.
