The oil and gas industry is considered one of the most important in the world with its extensive and rich supply chain. In Brazil, it is no different.
The Recent Discoveries by Petrobras in the Sergipe Basin only reinforce its value and importance to the economy of the country, through the generation of wealth and technological development.
To prove this fact, EY and the Brazilian Institute of Oil, Gas, and Biofuels (IBP) conducted a survey and concluded that the oil and gas industry is the third main economic activity in the country and ranks fourth when it comes to exports.
Just to give an idea, the oil and gas sector was responsible in 2017 for 46% of the trade surplus, contributing $21.2 billion to the trade balance.
