Brazil’s Petrobras has completed drilling extension well 3-BRSA-1253D-ESS / 3-ESS-219D (Petrobras nomenclature), informally known as Pudim, at a water depth of 1,886 meters, in the Espírito Santo Basin post-salt.
According to Petrobras, the completion of this well , which had been announced on October 7, 2014, confirmed the presence of excellent quality oil through log data analysis, fluid samples and cable test conducted in reservoirs located at a depth of some 4,300 meters. Drilling ended at a depth of 4,670 meters.
Then, a cased-hole drill-stem test was conducted at the 4,305 to 4,383 meter interval that confirmed the presence of light oil of approximately 35° API.
The well is located in the Brigadeiro Discovery Evaluation Plan (PAD) area, 121 km from the city of Vitória, in Espírito Santo state.
Petrobras is the operator (65%) of the consortium responsible for the exploration of the Brigadeiro Discovery Evaluation Plan (PAD), in partnership with PTTEP Brasil Investimentos em Exploração e Produção de Petróleo e Gás Ltda (20%) and Inpex Petróleo Santos Ltda (15%).
