Petrobras discovered a new gas accumulation at Espirito Santo Basin post-salt. The discovery took place during drilling of well 3-BRSA-1259-ESS/3-ESS-222, informally known as Tanganika, at a water depth of 1,043 m (3,422 ft) located in the Malombe discovery evaluation plan 72 km (45 miles) off the coast of the Espirito Santo state in Brazil.
The discovery was confirmed through logging carried out in reservoirs located at depth of about 2,880 m (9,449 ft). The well has reached the total depth of 2,996 m (9,829 ft).
The consortium operated by Petrobras (89.89%) in partnership with Repsol Sinopec (11.11%) will proceed with the operations planned, in order to better evaluate the discovery, through a formation test.
