Petrobras Brett Christner, Frank Hong, Nicholas Novacco, Tyler Smith
Overview • Semi-public Brazilian multinational energy corporation headquartered in Rio • Integrated energy company with a presence in 27 countries • A significant oil producer with output of more than 2 million barrels of oil per day • Legal monopolist in oil industry in Brazil
Overview • Brazilian government directly and indirectly owns 64% of Petrobras’ common shares • Indirectly 10% : Brazilian Development Bank and Brazil's sovereign Wealth Fund(Fundo Soberano) • In September 2010, Petrobras conducted the largest share sale in history • BM&F Bovespa stock exchange
Profile • 7th Biggest energy company in the world • source: PFC energy(january 2013) • Value of the petrobras brand : R$19.7billion = 8.7 billion USD • source : BrandAnalytics (2012)
Petrobras in numbers • Energy • 7 biofuels plants • 16 thermoelectric plants • 4 wind plants • Production • Daily production : 2.6 million barrels per day • Reserve : 16.4 billion barrels of oil and gas • Refineries : 2 million barrels of oil products per day
History • Created in 1953 under Brazilian president Getulio Vargas “The oil is ours” • Petrobras monopolization • The oil crisis of 1973 • World record for oil exploration • Petrobras 50 year mark in 2003
Business • State controlled company • Essentially has a monopoly on oil in Brazil • 7th biggest energy company in the world and estimated to be worth $8.64 billion • Most important assets are petroleum reserves in Brazil • Campos Basin • Domestic sales are majority of the companies profits • Also works to develop “green energy”
Growth in 2007-2008 • Petrobras growth was huge during this time • Some reason include: • Rise in oil prices • Increasing demand • Relative political stability • Discovery of mega-fields • Became second oil company in terms of value, behind only ExxonMobil
Downswing • Political meddling into Petrobras has created many problems • Brazilian government puts cap on oil prices • International oil market goes up • Forced to buy products from Brazil • Rising Demand • Massive Debt • Has essentially been used by the government for political policy and it cost them • Net profits fell 36% last year compared to 2011 • Now worth less than Colombia’s national oil company
Future for Petrobras • After an awful couple years, Petrobras still has a chance at a very bright future • Mega-fields • Biggest oil find in the America’s in the last decade • Proven that there is 16 billion barrels of oil there, and the potential to double that • Looking to triple exports by 2020 • Potential shift back towards ethanol • Despite the very poor last couple years for the company, Petrobras still certainly has a chance at success
Recent Endeavours • Tupi, Jupiter, Carioca and Bem-te-vi • U.S. loaning Petrobras $10B to finance exploration off coast of Brazil • Petrobras investing another $29B • “Pre-sal” oil fields could rocket Brazil into top 10 producers
Relation to Hugo Chavez • Deal with Venezuela’s PdVSA • Chavez and Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva
U.S. Spying • NSA monitoring internal Petrobras data • September 2013; Edward Snowden docs. • Spying on Brazilian President • Petrobras spending $21B over next 5 years on data security • Deep water drilling and oil field secrets
Questions • Will Petrobras be able to come back from its recent failures? Why or why not? • Is the Brazilian government interfering too much with the business of Petrobras? • How will revelations of U.S. data mining affect Brazilian/American relations?
