石油设备网讯 据哈特能源4月10日消息，4月9日，巴西能源部长Bento Albuquerque透露，巴西政府与巴西国家石油公司达成了一项具有里程碑意义的协议，巴西政府将斥资90.58亿美元修改一份石油转让权合同。
Albuquerque在巴西会晤后告诉记者，该协议为政府拍卖掉在权利转让区域过剩的石油开辟了道路，这是一个位于里约热内卢沿岸的巨型盐下石油储备区域。
这一权利转让合同可追溯到2010年政府与巴国油之间的一项交易，该交易与该公司的一笔大规模股票发行有关，这笔发行将稀释政府的股权。
为了维持对这家石油公司的控制，政府以748亿雷亚尔(合194.3亿美元)的价格向巴国油出售了一个超过50亿桶石油量的新勘探区的开采权。
巴西石油监管机构ANP估计，该地区可采石油储量约为170亿桶，政府正寻求拍卖多余的石油开采权。

Brazil's Government To Pay Petrobras $9 Billion For Oil Contract Revision
The Brazilian government reached a landmark deal to pay state-controlled oil company Petróleo Brasileiro SA $9.058 billion for revising a transfer-of-rights oil contract, Energy Minister Bento Albuquerque said April 9.
Albuquerque told reporters after a meeting in Brasilia that the agreement opens the way for the government to auction off the excess oil in the transfer-of-rights area, a giant pre-salt oil reserve off the coast of Rio de Janeiro.
The transfer-of-rights contract dates back to a 2010 deal between the government and Petrobras linked to a large share offering made by the company that would have diluted the government's stake.
To maintain control of the oil company, the government sold Petrobras the rights to over 5 billion barrels of oil in a new exploration area for 74.8 billion reais (US$19.43 billion).
Brazilian oil regulator ANP estimates there are around 17 billion barrels of recoverable oil in the area, and the government is seeking to auction rights for the exploration of the excess oil.
