Graph 1 – Changes in Proved Reserves during 2018 (ANP/SPE criteria)

Petrobras succeded to replace 96% of the produced volume, disregarding the effects of the divestments carried out in 2018, mainly due to drilling of new wells, positive responses to water injection and to the good performance of reservoirs in the pre-salt of Santos and Campos basins. The ratio between proved reserves and produced volume is 13.9 years.
