    Brazilian plan to review purchase of Bolivian natural gas

    Petrobras, which financed and built the pipeline on both sides of the border, is allowed to buy up to 30.1 million cubic meters of gas per day

    Petrobras sells natural gas pipeline operations in Bolivia

    Transierra operates Gasbol pipeline, which is the primary path for Petrobras to import about 30 million cubic meters/day of Bolivian gas.

    Brazil's Petrobras sold its stake in a Bolivian natural gas pipeline operator, continuing a string of asset sales aimed at generating cash for development of offshore oil fields at home. The Brazilian giant said it sold its 44.5% stake in Transierra to Bolivian state-owned YPFB for 106.7 million dollars.
