1 ____ PETROBRAS is well on the road to greatly increasing

its market share of the South American oil business. The

state-run oil giant is investing more than US$ 3 billion in a

4 strategy to spread risk, its managers say, through bold foreign

exploration.

In October 2002, PETROBRAS paid US$ 1 billion

7 for 59% of Argentina’s second-largest oil producer, Perez

Companc (PECOM), and expects to spend another US$ 2

billion over the next five years to beef up international

10 production, mainly in Venezuela but also in Peru, Bolivia and

Ecuador. Earlier, PETROBRAS swapped a billion dollar’s

worth of assets with Spanish-Argentine energy giant

13 Repsol-YPF for a share of Argentina’s retail gasoline and

refining business.
