Petrobras confirms oil and gas discovery in the Sergipe-Alagoas Basin
Petrobras has confirmed the presence of oil and gas accumulations in the ultra deep waters of the Sergipe-Alagoas basin, after completing a lined well formation test in the BM-SEAL-11 concession in Block SEAL-M-426. This is the first exploratory project in ultradeep waters on the Sergipe state area of the Basin.
The 1-BRSA-851-SES (1-SES-158) well, known as "Barra", is located at a water depth of 2341 m, 58 km off the Sergipe coastline and 90 km from the city of Aracaju.
The discovery was confirmed by wireline logging and fluid sampling during the lined well formation test.
Permeability and porosity conditions were found to be excellent in the reservoirs located at depths of around 5050 and 5400 m.
The oil sample was of excellent quality, with API around 43° in the upper interval and 32° in the lower interval.
