Petrobras
Petrobras

Petrobras signed several new agreements and partnerships that will help expand its business opportunities in Asia and Europe. In Asia, Petrobras signed memorandums with Chinese companies to promote economic development and trade between Brazil and China. It also signed an agreement to sell oil to a Chinese company. In Europe, Petrobras partnered with Portuguese companies in areas like biofuels, natural gas, power, and oil exploration. These partnerships open new fronts for Petrobras in regions where it already operates. Additionally, three new oil platforms started production in Brazil, increasing Petrobras' domestic output by 460,000 barrels per day. Two more platforms are scheduled to begin operating in Brazil in 2009.
