PANAMA CITY, PANAMA (Piero Stewart, Energy Analytics Institute, 10.Mar.2025) — Rio de Janeiro-based Petrobras said the Drill Stem Test (DST) in the Sirius-2 well, located in deep waters offshore Colombia, 31kms off the coast and at a water depth of 804m and assessed to 100m reservoir interval, demonstrated good productivity.
During the test, samples were collected and will be characterized through laboratory analyses. The preliminary result of the test reinforces the volumetric potential for gas in the region, Petrobras announced on 10 Mar. 2025 in an official statement.
Petrobras, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Petrobras International Braspetro B.V – Sucursal Colombia (PIB-COL), acts as the operator of the consortium (44,44% interest), jointly with Ecopetrol (55,56% interest). The consortium will continue to evaluate the results obtained from the drilling of Sirius-1 and Sirius-2 wells, according to planning and contractual obligations with the Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos (ANH) from Colombia.
Petrobras’ operations in the GUA-OFF-0 Block are in line with the company’s long-term strategy, aimed at replenishing oil and gas reserves through the exploration of new frontiers, ensuring that global energy demand is met during the energy transition.
