Oil Production

Tupi Field: The Tupi field, which was renamed in September 2020 from the Lula field (for legal reasons), is an oil field located in the Santos Basin off the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Production is between 5 and 8 billion barrels of high-quality oil, or relatively light oil, in addition to associated natural gas.

Búzios Field: The largest deepwater oil field in the world, it is a world-class asset with high-quality oil, substantial reserves, low risk, and low extraction costs. It is located 180 km off the Brazilian coast and more than 5,000 meters deep. It has an area of 850 km², with reservoir thicknesses of up to 480 meters and excellent reservoir rock quality. The more than 45 wells drilled so far confirm the excellent production and quality of the reservoir.
