The Brazilian state-owned oil company has made major discoveries of oil and natural gas offshore Sergipe, with great potential for gas production.

For the past six years, Petrobras' projects have been postponed and the company's current schedule is to install two FPSOs definitive from 2020.

The state company is looking for a new partner for the project, which is partially for sale. Only one of the discoveries, Poço Verde, has 11,9 billion (P50) m³ of natural gas in place (VGIP).

Gas volumes are estimated for one of the reservoirs explored during the discovery evaluation plan (PAD) for well 1-BRSA-1022-SES, started in 2013 and completed last year.

The PAD encompasses areas of the BM-SEAL-4A contracts (where ONGC is a 25% partner) and BM-SEAL-11 (100% Petrobras).
