Rio Oil & Gas 2018

Message from the Country Manager

Builders of the Pre-Salt

“We were one of the first to believe in Brazil’s oil potential. At the beginning of the century, the pre-salt layer was uncharted territory, a dream that few ventured to pursue. From day one, we helped make this dream come true through our commitment, our partnerships and our skills.”

Miguel Pereira

Galp in Rio Oil & Gas

Rio Oil & Gas is the largest meeting of the sector in Latin America. Under the theme of Power to Transform, this year we will cover discussions on the recovery of the industry, prospects and the paths for the future of the industry in Brazil and in the world. Galp, present in Brazil since 1999, was one of the pioneers in the development of some of the most important projects of the pre-salt of the Santos basin. It is currently the third largest producer of oil and gas in the country, with interests in 29 projects, contributing actively to the development of some of the largest oil reserves in the world.

As such, we could not miss being present at this event. Come visit us at Pavilion 2 and check out our presentations on "the importance of the siliciclastic reservoirs in Petrogal's portfolio", the "General characteristics of pre-salt carbonates in Petrogal concession areas", "Geophysics applied in the reservoirs of Brazilian pre-salt" and the "3D Modelling of Rock Types in Carbonated Reservoirs".

Also, take the opportunity to participate in an immersive experience that will take you to the centre of the Earth.
