The auctions of the pre-salt blocks offered in the 4th round of bids were successful and achieved new milestones in Brazil’s oil explorations. One of them was the lack of purchasing power of Petrobras, which ended up losing two rounds, but due to its right of preference, it adopted the strategy of entering into a consortium with other multinational operators, opening the market to surprising indices. See below which blocks were involved and how much each received from the share in the explorations.
