Brazil's Campos Basin raises hopes, because it is there that over half of Brazil's petroleum and natural gas reserves reside, and potential awaits. Offshore potential in general is the spearhead of Brazil's petroleum planning, for two reasons: One, its production increased over 36.4% between 1981 and 1982, to 137,000 barrels per day (b/d), while onshore production increased just 1.8% to 122,000 b/d; and last year, crude oil imports were reduced by 5.6% to 798,000 b/d. For Brazil, the country with the biggest foreign debt in the world, and with 36% of its energy diet supplied by petroleum, offshore oil potential is a treasure meriting the greatest protective development. This is because, in addition to cutting oil imports, offshore operations are affording Brazil a leadership in technical experience that is in high demand in the developing world. In August, Petrobras was to bring completely onstream the longest submarine pipeline system in Latin America, 460 km, combining two forks to bring Campos crude to the mainland. This issue examines the Campos development overall, and the further benefits it is expected to bring to Brazil. This issue also presents the Energy Detente fuel price/tax series and the principal industrial fuel prices for July 1983 for countries of the Western Hemisphere.
