São Paulo – Oil and gas production was up 5.7% in Brazil year-on-year in February to 4.383 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE/D), the Brazilian National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP, in the Portuguese acronym) reported.
Oil-only output was 3.448 million barrels per day, and gas output was 148.63 million cubic meters per day (m³/d). The pre-salt area accounted for 76.1% of total national production.
Offshore fields accounted for 97.5% of oil and 86.4% of natural gas output in Brazil last February. Fields operated by Petrobras, either single-handedly or in consortia, accounted for 88.69% of all national output.
