With 3 Million Barrels, Rio de Janeiro Was the Largest Producing State of National Oil and National Natural Gas.

In September, the production of oil and natural gas from the Pre-salt totaled 2.85 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), representing 74.10% of the national total (3.84 million boe/d). It was the largest historical monthly production record in the Pre-salt, both in absolute terms and in percentage participation in the country’s total production.

These and other data on national oil and gas production are available on the Dynamic Panel of Oil and Natural Gas Production, at this link.

Accumulated Production in the Pre-salt Exceeded All Accumulated Production in Onshore Fields Since 1941

The accumulated production in the Pre-salt, since the discovery of Tupi in April 2009, is 5.02 billion barrels of oil equivalent. This figure has already exceeded, for example, all accumulated production in onshore fields since 1941, which was 4.96 billion barrels of oil equivalent.
