Petrobras Tests Sirius-2 Well, Confirms Major Gas Discovery Offshore Colombia

Petrobras has successfully completed a Drill Stem Test (DST) at the Sirius-2 well, located 31 kilometers off Colombia's coast, confirming over six trillion cubic feet of gas volumes, potentially increasing the nation's reserves by 200%. The test assessed a 100-meter reservoir interval and demonstrated good productivity, reinforcing the area's gas potential. Petrobras, through its subsidiary PIB-COL, operates the consortium with a 44.44% stake, while Ecopetrol holds 55.56%. The results of the DST indicate a significant gas presence, marking this as the largest gas discovery in Colombia's history. The consortium plans to continue evaluating results from both the Sirius-1 and Sirius-2 wells in compliance with contractual obligations to Colombia’s Agencia Nacional de Hidrocarburos. This exploration aligns with Petrobras' strategy to replenish oil and gas reserves and support global energy demands during the transition to sustainable energy sources.
