    Petrobras strikes further discovery at giant pre-salt Libra field in Santos basin

    The first exploration well, 3-RJS-731, was spud by the Schahin Cerrado drillship in August 2014, just 5km southwest of the discovery well 2-ANP-2A-RJS.

    Petrobras announced a further hydrocarbon discovery at the giant pre-salt Libra field in the Santos basin, offshore Brazil. The company said that well 3-BRSA-1310-RJS, in the central portion of the block, identified the presence of hydrocarbons in a low-porosity reservoir. This is the fourth well drilled in the Libra area since exploratory drilling began last August.
