Just for the record, from page ... http://www2.petrobras.com.br/AtuacaoInternacional/ingles/ani/eua/AniEua.asp#pop ... I extrated the text below: In 2002, a new discovery was made in the Cascade prospect, after drilling an exploratory well (WR-206-1) in ultra-deep water in the American sector of the Gulf of Mexico, in which the unit has a 25% share. It will be necessary to drill new exploratory wells for assessment and extension to determine the size of the discovery. At the end of the first quarter in 2003, the exploratory well Chinook-3 is being drilled near the Cascade discovery and in a geologically similar prospect. In March 2003, Petrobras had a share in 111 blocks, operating 30 of them. The average daily production, from January to March 2003, was 1,500 bpd and 5,200 boed of oil and gas, respectively. In December 2002, the proven reserve was 15.5 million barrels of oil equivalent (according to the criterion of the Society of Petroleum Engineers-SPE).
