Brazil's Petrobras $PETR3 (-1,14 %)
$PETR4 (-0,38 %) is examining the possibility of an auction of oil blocks to be held in India this year, the head of the state oil company's exploration and production department, Sylvia dos Anjos, said on Thursday.
Petrobras had already collected data to analyze the potential of the offshore areas on offer in deep and ultra-deep waters, dos Anjos said, but no decision had yet been made on whether the company would bid.
