Petrobras confirms discoveries in Sergipe-Alagoas, Santos ultra-deepwaters, signs drillship contracts

摘要

Petrobras confirmed in August the presence of quality oil and gas in the BM-SEAL-10 block, in ultra-deepwaters in the Sergipe-Alagoas Basin. The block is part of the SEAL-M-499 concession. The discovery occurred during the drilling of 1-BRSA-1088-SES (1-SES-168) well, commonly known as Moita Bonita, in a water depth of 2,775 meters. Located 85 km off the coast of Aracaju, Brazil, the well is 35 km southwest of the Barra accumulation, where the l-SES-158 well was drilled, which revealed the first meaningful gas discovery in Sergipe-Alagoas ultra-deepwaters.
