- Story Text:Brazil-based Repsol Sinopec expects oil and gas output to remain steady at an average of 90,000 to 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day through 2020, the firm's chief executive told Reuters as part of the Reuters Latin American Investment Summit.
In an interview on Friday (August 11), CEO Leonardo Junqueira said the firm, a joint venture between Spain's Repsol and China's Sinopec, would not bid in a September oil block auction, as it focuses on exploiting its current assets in Brazil.
Repsol Sinopec, Brazil's third largest producer behind state-controlled Petroleo Brasileiro and Shell, produced nearly 99,000 boe per day on average in June, government data shows.
One of Repsol Sinopec's key assets is its 35 percent stake in the BM-C-33 block in the pre-salt Campos basin, which includes the promising Pao de Acucar prospect. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
