BRAZIL:  Shell Brasil Ltda. is seeking a partner to join them in drilling what Shell called “a major exploration prospect offshore deepwater Brazil.  The BMC 31 concession is located in an established productive oil fairway – two of the largest oil fields in Brazil, Roncador and Albacora Leste, are in adjacent blocks.”

The primary prospect is a large, three-way dip closure against a salt ridge in the Campos Basin.  The play concept has been successfully tested in the area, providing a direct analog for the prospect.  Additional prospects in other play types provide upside potential, including a pre-salt target, which is analogous to two discoveries.  Petrobras is the operator of BMC 31, and multiple production options are available through nearby infrastructure.
