The Juruá Field is located in the Solimoes basin in the Amazon state, Brazil. The Juruá Field has a significant volume of discovered natural gas and is located 120 km westward of the Urucu Field and 725 km from Manaus, between the Rivers Juruá and Tefé. Juruá Concession includes, since January 2009, four original concessions: Igarapé Pucá, Sudoeste de Juruá, Nordeste de Juruá and Juruá. Such Concessions were granted to Petrobras, in Bid Round 0, in 1998, and the contract expires in 2025 (27 years of production phase). The Juruá Field reservoirs are mainly sandstone, with good lateral continuity, high static pressure and medium porosity. Juruá field was discovered in 1978. Since then, 15 wells were drilled, 8 of them classified as producer wells. Four (4) of these wells are already completed.
