World-Class Upstream Leaders Gather in Rio to Discuss Latin America’s Next Deepwater Chapter

Latin America's deepwater sector is entering a new chapter. Brazil's pre-salt Santos Basin continues to anchor the region's growth, with Petrobras committing over $100 billion to exploration and production through 2030, while Guyana and Suriname emerge as the industry's newest frontiers. Rio de Janeiro sits at the centre of that momentum.

So it comes as no surprise that the next Global Upstream Leaders Forum, sponsored by Viridien, lands there next week, as we explore "Latin America’s Deepwater Advantage: Scaling a New Era of Supply".

As always, we’ve curated a line-up of the most influential names in upstream, moderated by Gayle Meikle, Founder & CEO, Frontier.
