Petrobras oil production in Brazil in October reached 1 million 940 thousand barrels per day, a 5.3% increase in relation to September. Natural gas production in Brazil was 62 million 425 thousand cubic meters per day, 3.5% higher than September.

The total oil and natural gas production, in Brazil and abroad, was 2 million 581 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day, indicating a 4.4% increase from September.

Fields located in Brazil produced a total of 2 million 332 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day of oil and natural gas, corresponding to a 5% rise when compared to the previous month. Production increased despite the scheduled maintenance shutdowns of P-7, P-43 and FPSO Cidade de Vitória. This result was mainly due to the return to operations of other platforms that were under maintenance in September and to the start up of FPSO Cidade de Anchieta in Campos basin pre-salt, in the area known as Whales Park, in the coast of the Espírito Santo State.
