The discovery, made in Block C-M-477 about 200 kilometers off Rio de Janeiro and operated by Petrobras in partnership with BP, comes shortly after a $450 million deal to consolidate interests in other Brazilian offshore assets, developments that may influence long-term expectations for Oil – US Crude and Natural Gas markets.
