Executive Summary
Petrobras announced a new oil discovery in the Morpho well (1-BRSA-1405-APS) in ultra-deep waters off the coast of Amapá, Brazil, at a water depth of 2,886 meters. This follows an earlier discovery in the same well announced in August 2026 and expands the company's knowledge of the exploratory potential of the Foz do Amazonas Sedimentary Basin.
