On January 21, 2008, Petrobras announced the discovery of the Júpiter Field, a huge natural gas and condensate (very light oil) field which could equal the Tupi oil field in size (5-8 billion BOE). It is located in the Santos Basin, 37 km (23 mi) east of Tupi, 5,100 m (16,730 ft) below the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in a water depth of 2,187 m (7,175 ft), 290 km (180 mi) from Rio de Janeiro.[1]
Description
[edit | edit source]The main reservoir of Júpiter is the pre-salt Guaratiba Group. The field is estimated to contain 1,600 million barrels (250 million cubic metres) of oil and 17 trillion cubic feet (480 billion cubic metres) of gas.[citation needed]
