	Petrobras - A Petrobras - RH
		Considered the biggest oil reserve in the Brazilian Continental Platform, the Campos Basin measures some 100,000 square kilometers and ranges from the State of Espírito Santo, near the city of Vitória, to the Arraial do Cabo, off the northern coast of the State of Rio de Janeiro.
		The first was the P-52, which was baptized last June and is currently in its final testing phase to depart to the Campos Basin.
		Exploration was kicked-off in the Campos Basin in late 1976, at well 1-RJS-9-A, which gave rise to the Garoupa field, located at a depth of 100 meters.

		The geological description of the Campos Basin suggests that the rock formations in which oil is being found are in Upper Oligocene to Lower Micocene deposits – in other words, deposits from the Cenozoic Era, dating back only some 24,000 years.
		The technical descriptions of the oil-rich rock in the Campos Basin strongly suggest that the deposits flowed from the continent and settled on the ocean floor.
		While the geology suggests the Campos Basin oil-rich deposits formed when the sea level was lower than today, the deposits suggest that the area was most probably still underwater when the sand and mud deposits flowed into the area.

		Recent seismic surveys in the Angolan portion of the Lower Congo Basin and in the Campos Basin show that post-depositional salt movements have created various trap types in the overlying sediments.
		The salt thickens toward the African shore, producing different structures in the basin's upper margin extensional tectonic environment, from those that occur in the area affected by compressional tectonics (western and deeper parts of the basin).
		The only fields that come close to those numbers are found in the deep water Campos Basin, which geologically is a mirror image of West Africa.
