    Petrobras suspends operations in major offshore rig for safety reasons

    The P-58 is one of Petrobras' biggest-producing platforms in the Campos basin, a region off the coast of the southeastern state of Rio de Janeiro

    Brazilian state-controlled oil giant Petrobras on Saturday said it has suspended operations at a major offshore platform, citing safety concerns. The P-58 platform, which extracts 106,000 barrels per day, was taken out of service for unscheduled maintenance and to improve its operational efficiency, the company said in a statement Friday.
