Oil and Gas Production

Total daily production of Campos Basin is 265,000 cubic metres (1.69 million barrels) of oil and 26,8 million cubic metres of natural gas per day. The estimates are that in 2010, Campos Basin will be producing 282,000 cubic metres (1.8 million barrels) of oil and 34,6 million cubic metres of natural gas per day. Marlim complex produces over 80,000 cubic metres (500,000 barrels) of crude oil per day.

The confirmed reserves are 1.1 billion cubic metres (7.21 billion barrels) of oil and condensate, and 101.53 cubic kilometres of natural gas. Exploration seems to be fading; most reserves were found between 1985 and 1997.

Famous quotes containing the words oil, gas and/or production:

    Courage, determination, and hard work are all very nice, but not so nice as an oil well in the back yard.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Shielded, what sorts of life are stirring yet:
    Legs lagged like drains, slippers soft as fungus,
    The gas and grate, the old cold sour grey bed.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Just as modern mass production requires the standardization of commodities, so the social process requires standardization of man, and this standardization is called equality.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
