Previously known as the Lula field, Tupi had its name changed by court decision on July 7, 2020, in a popular action, which determined the annulment of the area’s designation as the Lula field.
The concession began production of its first definitive system in 2010, with the operation of the FPSO Cidade de Angra do Reis, and is currently the largest oil and gas producing field in the country.
