informs that its average daily production in January 2010 was 2,525.8
thousand barrels of oil equivalent (boed), 1% lower

The Company's average oil and NGL (Natural Gas Liquids) production in
Brazil was 1,973 thousand barrels per day (bpd), 14 thousand bpd less than
the previous month, primarily due to preventive maintenance of
three platforms in Campos Basin (PCE-1, P-08 and FPSO-MLS). The average
natural gas production, excluding the liquefied volume, was 49.5 million
cubic meters per day (m3/d), lower than December production due to demand
fluctuations.
In the International segment, the average oil and NGL was 147.7 thousand
boed, 1,8% below the
December level and it was impacted by the wells workover
in the Akpo field. The natural gas production
