Norwegian oil and gas company Statoil ASA has signed an agreement with Brazilian oil and gas company Petroleo Brasileiro (Petrobas) to acquire 25% share in the Roncador oil and gas field in offshore Brazil for $2.9bn.
Statoil will make an initial payment of $2.3bn and invest an additional $550m in projects that will increase oil recovery for the field.
Petrobras will hold 75% in the field and serve as the operator, while Statoil will own the remaining 25%, upon completion of the acquisition.
The asset acquisition will enable Statoil to add long-term production to its international portfolio and strengthen its position in Brazil.
