According to the ANP, oil production from the pre-salt layer was of 339.4 thousand barrels per day. Natural gas in the pre-salt layer, in turn, reached 11.5 million cubic meters per day. The production of oil equivalent in the pre-salt layer was of 412 thousand boe\/d, representing an increase by 10.8% over October 2013. <\/p>\n<p>The ANP statement informs that approximately 91.7% of the Brazilian production of oil, and 71.8% of natural gas extraction come from sea fields. Areas operated by Petrobras, the Brazilian state-owned company in the sector, produced 92.1% of the Brazilian oil equivalent in November. <\/p>\n<p>According to the ANP, the Marlim Sul field, at the Campos Basin in Rio de Janeiro, had the highest oil production in November: an average of 275.1 thousand barrels per day. The Manati field, in turn, at the Camamu Basin, in the state of Bahia, was the greatest producer of natural gas, with an average of 6.2 million cubic meters per day. <\/p>\n<p>From the total oil production in November, 10.5% was light density, 61.6% medium and 27.8% heavy oil. The API (unit that measures oil quality) for the November production was of 24.5&deg;, that is, medium oil. The lighter the oil, the higher is it&rsquo;s value. <\/p>\n<p><b>*Translated by Silvia Lindsey<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-185725\">Press Release\/Petrobras<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the National Petroleum Agency, there was an increase by 1.8% in relation to the previous year, to 2.081 million barrels per day.
