The Zohr Project in Egypt Brazil: Through its subsidiary, Rosneft Brasil E&P Ltda, the company engages in a prospecting and exploration project at licence areas in the Solimões River Basin (state of Amazonas), holding a 100% stake and operatorship in these licences. Its efforts resulted in a number of gas discoveries. In 2019, the company drilled the fourth prospecting well, which helped detail the geological structure and the oil and gas bearing potential of the basin. The company is considering monetisation options for the newly discovered gas reserves. Iraq: Bashneft International B.V. is the project operator and owns a 100% stake in the hydrocarbon exploration and production agreement for Block 12. In December 2019, the second exploration well, Salman-2, was completed and tested by the company at Block 12 in Iraq’s south, which confirmed the initial estimate of oil reserves at the Salman field. In late 2019, the company submitted to the Iraqi side an application for potential commercial discovery and a further exploration programme for the next two years. Iraq (Kurdistan): Since 2017, the company has been running a hydrocarbon exploration and production project in Iraqi Kurdistan. The company is the project operator, holding an 80% stake in five production sharing agreements (PSA). In February 2019, oil production was piloted at the Bejil field.
