Petrobras has identified the presence of hydrocarbons in the pre-salt of the Campos Basin, in an exploratory well drilled in Sector SC-AP4 of the Campos Basin, block C-M-477. Well 1- BRSA-1404DC-RJS is located 201 km off the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, at a water depth of 2,984 meters.

The hydrocarbon-bearing interval was identified through electric logs, gas shows, and fluid sampling. The samples will subsequently be sent for laboratory analysis, which will allow the characterization of the reservoir conditions and the fluids found, enabling the continuation of the evaluation of the area’s potential.…
